Millennium Bridge
The grandest view of St. Paul's Cathedral is achieved while walking atop the Millennium Bridge from Tate Modern. I often call the bridge the "Path to St Paul's"; it is simply stunning at all times during the day.
The Millennium is the newest edition of bridges in Central London and well worth the journey across in either direction. It links St. Paul's Cathedral to Bankside and the Tate Modern Museum. I highly recommend exploring St Paul's, the Millennium Bridge and Tate Modern Museum from all possible perspectives. This area is one of the most interesting for visitors and photographers alike.
The Millennium Bridge is a 330m steel bridge and the first pedestrian crossing over the Thames in central London for more than a century. The bridge opened in time for the first year of the new Millennium though closed when the deck swayed like a drunken sailor. The bridge was instantly renamed as "The Wobbly Bridge," and after two days of random swaying, swinging and oscillating wildly, the bridge was closed down.
After nearly two years of testing, alterations corrected the issues and the bridge reopened to the public in February 2002 - the swaying stopped. After all the excitement of its rocky birth, the bridge is now a valuable asset to London, appreciated by Londoners and tourists alike. The Millennium Bridge is a worthy addition to London's riverside and well worth a visit.
Try walking across the bridge at night when there are few people around.
I help aspiring and established photographers get noticed so they can earn an income from photography or increase sales. My blog, Photographer’s Business Notebook is a wealth of information as is my Mark Paulda’s YouTube Channel. I also offer a variety of books, mentor services and online classes at Mark Paulda Photography Mentor
