Tower Bridge

A lovely river path to walk and enjoy scenic views of the Tower Bridge. Additionally, it is close to Old Sacramento stores for shopping or bird watching along the way!

No toll free access to walk and bike beautiful views of the Sacramento River and ship crossings. Location West Sacramento. Parking, hotels, food service and much more are available near by.

Tower bridge was one of my bucket lists. I was able to see it and walk across the bridge and I enjoyed every minute of it

A must-visit spot! The historic Tower Bridge is truly impressive and full of character. It's a great place to take photos—plenty of scenic angles with the bridge and surrounding views. The river adds to the charm, offering a peaceful and picturesque backdrop. We even spotted a seal swimming near the edge, which was such a cool surprise! Whether you're into history, photography, or just want a relaxing stroll by the water, this place has something for everyone. It’s a beautiful blend of architecture and nature. Definitely worth the stop if you're in the area!

If you're into bridges, this is a good one to see. Built 1935.

Sacramento Tower bridge connects old town Sacramento and its restored waterfront with a pretty new Sacramento West part of town. It's distinguished with its yellow color. Bridge is in a very important historical location where early settlers and gold miners disembarked, which made Sacramento rich and famous and even CA capital. It's a vertical lift bridge and you can see it from the waterfront of both sides

💛 I've always loved yellow & gold, so I had to see this yellow bridge in person. Took a brief 15 min stroll over and couldn't stop smiling. As I got closer, I could see the Tower Bridge was not yellow...it's GOLD! Even better!

This bridge feels like home, more than most landmarks in the area, this one screams to me "Sacramento". Whether you're crossing it while driving through town, walking by while exploring or enjoying a special occasion like the Tower Bridge Dinner, it's a sight to see. It's lit up at night and you can see it while driving up 5 North as well. I remember how cool it was to cross under it during a fundraising walk, over and around the ballpark and back to the capitol building. In fact I've captured video on more than one occasion while we've driven under it as well. Whenever we have out of town visitors this is one of our spots to take them, especially when the weather is nice.

A beautiful land mark, especially driving in from YOLO. That direction takes you from the home of the River Cats to the State Capital. The bridge has been updated over the years and now shines as a bright beacon

Well, it's not every day you see a vertical lift bridge, much less a bright yellow one. Unless you live and work in Sacramento. Then you're probably used to it. As a non-local, however, I only recently have stopped, looked, and walked on it like I was some bridge groupie bowled over by the heavy steel construction and the constant rumble of vehicular traffic. I don't think I'm that much of an architectural pushover, but it was quite a uniquely conspicuous sight as I was walking the riverfront between the Crocker Art Museum and Old Sacramento. It was built in 1935 in the Streamline Moderne style heavily influenced by the Art Deco movement - even though the bright yellow hue didn't feel like Miami Beach to me. The bridge is only 737 feet long, so it won't take you long to walk it, and then you can do what I did and risk life and limb dodging the M Street traffic to walk on the other side. Actually it wasn't that scary since it was the middle of the day, but if you're here, make a point of stopping to admire this landmark. They can't all be the Golden Gate Bridge, and it's certainly better than the Dumbarton (no offense). RELATED - Exploring Sacramento? Here's a collection of places I've visited and reviewed: https://bit.ly/3UetBpa

Tower Bridge is one of the most important landmarks in Sacramento. It is so beautiful regardless of day or night! The bridge is connected to the City of Sacramento and the City of West Sacramento. It is one of the major bridges between these two cities. I have taken countless photos of this gorgeous landmark in the last 30+ years. All the pictures are amazing! I also bring all my friends and relatives who visit Sacramento to see the bridge. They were very excited to see this beautiful bridge too! I highly recommend it to anyone who is coming to Sacramento. Make sure you are included Tower Bridge in your schedule. I'm sure you will have a great time in the area too. Enjoy your trip!

Growing up in Sacramento I didn't care much about this Bridge. However, moving away and visiting family made me realize that certain things shouldn't be taken for granted which I have become more appreciative of what is around me especially if it's part of history. This historical landmark bridge is what makes Sacramento so special as I take lots of pictures with different angles of the bridge. There is a little walkway under the bridge which can take you from the beginning to end of the bridge just be careful as you are close to driving vehicles. I have watched the movie, Lady Bird that has taken place in Sacramento and I totally relate to this movie, and you will see the Tower Bridge in the movie too. The Tower Bridge is totally right next to old Sacramento which is walkable if you are planning a trip to Sacramento. The Tower Bridge is a vertical lift bridge across the Sacramento River, linking West Sacramento in Yolo County to the west, with the capital of California, Sacramento, in Sacramento County to the east. It has also been known as M Street Bridge. If you're into architectural bridge design, then I highly recommend you visit this iconic bridge.

The tower bridge looks quite unique, and you can walk across it, or standing on the bridge to look at the river snd people in the river walk. It connects to the capital mall road directly to the capital building.

Very unique sight to see in downtown Sac! Easy access, great views. Went at night as this was when I happened to be nearby.

Wether you decide to drive past it, swim under it, or walk across it, you will love the energy. It's rare to walk past a golden painted bridge, so come visit! It's located in Old Sacramento where all the fun things are, so there is no excuse not to go! Looking, touching, and photos are free. Bring your favorite cameras and get ready to snap a few pictures for social media!

A pedestrian and vehicle traffic bridge that also serves as a vertical lift bridge The Tower Bridge might not be the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco spanning over the mighty Pacific Ocean nor is it the Tower Bridge in London that crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London but it is gold and it is a bridge. No, this bridge is Sacramento's own golden bridge across the Sacramento River. I remember there was some controversy over what color the bridge should be. First it was silver, then yellow, then it was put into a vote by residents who lived within 35 miles of the capital. The winning choice was all gold, and it was repainted in 2002. The rusty yellow/gold color paint given is probably associated with its gold rush history (I'm just guessing). It serves as the entrance to downtown Sacramento (Sacramento County) from West Sacramento (Yolo County). When dining at the restaurants on the waterfront, depending on where you're seated, you get a nice view of the Tower Bridge as your backdrop. We had a cool view of it when we were dining at Joe's Crab Shack and also at Rio City Cafe a few times. When on board the Hornblower on a Sacramento Historic River Cruise it sails underneath the bridge. The bridge occasionally lifts up for boat crossings. I wasn't fortunate enough to see it "in action" so I guess it is just another bridge. LoL! There are walkways on both sides for pedestrians. We once witnessed a Fourth of July celebration when fireworks was shot off on west of the bridge. They do this on New Year's Eve too. The Tower Bridge reminds you that this city is very much a river city and is an iconic landmark of Sacramento. And there you have it... my two cents. It is just a simple bridge but it is a long time symbol of Sacramento and that makes it pretty special for locals. Review #1978

This is a pretty cool bridge to check out! You can park in old sacramento and walk over! The bridge is a gold color, so cool!

Amazing bridge and one of the iconic symbols of Sacramento if not the most recognizable. Try to visit in the early morning or right before dusk to get the best sunlight catching the gold off of the bridge

The most iconic landmark of Sacramento. Had every intention of walking it, but the weather was very yucky and from where we lodged and distance to get downtown.... nah, I'm not about that much walking life. Driving over it a couple time was enough of an experience for me :)

I don't visit Sacramento often, but I will make it a point to stop at the Tower Bridge again the next time that I do. While it's not as glamourous as the Bay Bridge or Golden Gate Bridge, the Tower Bridge is still iconic in its' own right. This bright golden yellow vertical lift bridge crosses over the Sacramento River to connect West Sacramento to Sacramento city. It was first opened in December of 1935 when it replaced the old Sacramento Northern Railway swing through truss bridge. The bridge is centered right near the beautiful Riverfront Promenade, and there's a walkway that will lead you right onto the bridge. There's also a section where you can walk underneath bridge. The views of the Sacramento River from the bridge are insanely gorgeous. If catching sunsets is your thing, I wouldn't miss the opportunity to see one here. The view of the sun cascading against the bridge is truly magical. This is also an excellent place to take a stroll. There are rest benches and a walking path that extends along the river. The only inconvenience is the limited amount of parking. There are a few parking spots in front of the promenade and paid parking about a block or two away, but they fill up fast. Either way, it's still worth a visit. It's a charming little bridge with a nice walking path and excellent views.

I've always loved bridges from all over the country. Tower Bridge is another cool one. I believe it's been around since 1935. It's not a regular bridge, it's a vertical lift bridge!!! I drive past Tower Bridge on I-5 daily going to work. It's beautifully lit up as I drive by. I like going to Old Sacramento to walk around the bridge and then admire it from another view site. So many people have captured different angles of this bridge and all are unique. This one has another meaning dear to me. From the dock area overlooking the bridge is where I got engaged. Tower Bridge will always be extra special!!

Cool bridge. Should be called Golden Gate Bridge. Lol nice are you walk around and/or go through the bridge. Right next to old town Sacramento.

Very poopy. There is s extreme amount bird poop on the bridge. It needs to be power washed. I like the location as it helps me get to places quicker then the freeway. There

First let me say, I misssssss my Bay Bridge and Golden Gate Bridge SO MUCH! With that said, I'll take the Tower Bridge as a temporary replacement and while I know these bridges can't even come close to comparison - the Tower Bridge is truly a beautiful landmark that connects West Sacramento and the Downtown Capitol. Although it sometimes has a stinky smell when you walk across it, nothing beats the beautiful sunset backdrops on a summer afternoon. If you plan a visit to Old Sacramento, you can easily walk over to this bridge for some cute local pictures. Only downfall - like many downtown areas, you might run into some pan handlers/homeless living on or under the bridge.

I don't come to Sacramento often but I feel like I should! It's absolutely beautiful out here!!! As other people have said, it's not as big & glamorous as the San Fransisco Bridge or Golden Gate Bridge, but this bridge is definitely short & beautiful! Great view of Sacramento River. It's truly a nice place for a walk. I wish I got pictures with it, but I had a cranky toddler, so next time we make a drive our here we will forsure be camera ready!

I was driving through Sacramento and came upon this beauty! I had no idea this bridge was here so I had to take some pictures. It's no Golden Gate Bridge with the tourism and nice walk attached, neither is it the Bay Bridge with the nice lights, and neither is it the Brooklyn Bridge with the nice aesthetics - but the Tower Bridge is a short cute. There are sidewalks, similar to the Golden Bridge, so it's easy to just walk alongside the bridge.

It's big. It's yellow. It elicits guttural oohs and aahs from children of all ages... No, it's not Big Bird, the giant Long Beach harbor rubber duckie, or the 300 lb. Twinkie referenced in the original Ghostbusters film. It's the Tower Bridge, connecting West Sacramento to Sacramento's business district and the capital. Built in the 1930s to support an expanding population, the Bridge was designated as an historical landmark in 1982. It's vertical lift is still in operation, allowing larger watercraft to travel up and down the Sacramento River. On my most recent trip to the area, the river was in flood stage, with huge trees and other debris floating down the river. This kept most boats off the water, and thus, the bridge remained in its lowered position for the duration of my stay. Still, it is a pretty old Bridge, allowing cars and for traffic to get across the river without anyone getting their shoes wet.

A beautiful bridge that is as much a symbol of Sacramento as anything. Plenty of spots nearby to stop and admire and photograph the bridge. Built in 1935, the vertical lift bridge raises to allow traffic flowing on the Sacramento River to pass. The river goes all the way from the San Francisco bay up to Redding and so is an important waterway for the area. Here's a tip: Look underneath the bridge and see the extensive homeless camp there. Sad.

Thank you, Blackberry, for the new app. But for you my travels would be a secret, because there'd be no aspiration for royalty, no temptation to leave an electronic fingerprint places I go. But for you, I'd not have the reminder of the places I've visited, the places important enough to share. I am the Duke of the Tower Bridge. My only other claim to royalty is a wall in Oakland. I rule over inanimate objects. Or objets d'art. Or is it the other way around? To my eyes, this bridge is the prettiest human-built structure in all of Sacramento, if not a radius of many miles around. That it was the first vertical-lift bridge in the California highway system, or that it was built because the powers thought that in wartime the single other bridge wouldn't be adequate (as if anybody would want to invade Sacramento), are interesting factlets, but for me they're only verbal icing on a far more substantial cake. My intimate acquaintance was made on Jack the Ripper nights spent on the deck of the nearby Delta King, sipping a beverage, smoking alone in a deck chair. Listening only to the river flowing and the occasional tread across the metal decking of the bridge. Doppler hum, river, doppler hum the other way. Through drops of water the bridge glows in an otherworldy way. By daylight it's different, but no less beautiful. It keeps my company every time I visit. I pledge to be a benevolent and appreciative ruler.

I know very little about the construction of bridges, but you can't help but admire this old historic bridge which gains a lot of attention by all who visit the Old Sacramento area. It connects downtown to West Sacramento as it crosses over the Sacramento River. It kind of reminds me of a giant metal Lego creation. Painted in gold, it seems to glow in the sunlight and reflects its eye catching goldness under the spotlights at night. Unlike traditional draw bridges, this one has a vertical lift, in which the center of the bridge rises upward to allow large boats to pass under, such as the Delta King. When you hear the loud whistle sound, people often stop what they are doing just to watch the bridge do its thing. I have often wondered what it would be like to be in the operator's office located at the top of the lift bridge. You definitely don't want to be asleep on the job there! It has established itself as a popular landmark that seems to be connected with several other places of interest. You are either crossing over it to get to a local destination, crossing under it if you are lucky enough to be on a boat, walking past it near the promenade to view the river or visit Old Sacramento, or gazing upon it from a nearby restaurant, bar or hotel. It's even seen in the background during the airing of our local news stations. I would love to mention the historical details about this bridge, but Eric B. did a nice job with this already in his review, so I don't really need to repeat them. But I do know that as I have matured from being a young adult many years ago, who paid little attention to this bridge except to get annoyed when I would get lost downtown and accidentally have to drive over it multiple times from making a wrong turn, to someone who now appreciates the importance and beauty of what the Tower Bridge provides for our ever important river ways and economy. Who knew that one bridge could accomplish so many things? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dHhgacr2Eg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99FPbinAFVU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgRTAqxg54k

The Tower Bridge is a vertical lift bridge across the Sacramento River, linking West Sacramento in Yolo County to the West, with the Capital Mall in Sacramento County to the East. It was previously a part of U.S. Route 40 until that highway was truncated east of Salt Lake City. It's now also known as State Route 275, was opened for traffic in 1935, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It's a beauty of a Bridge, with a cool gold hue that was repainted in 2002. This structure also represented "A Bridge Too Far" during my recent trip to Sacramento, as a my Son denied me an opportunity to walk across and catch a Sacramento River Cats (AAA Oakland) right there at Raley Field. All I could do was admire the Bridge for the road, the Hotel room, and the walkway. There WILL be a next time!

The golden lift bridge is a rare example of Streamline Moderne architecture. The bridge was opened in 1935; in 1982 it was added to the list of National Historical Places. It glows beautifully in the late afternoon light and it also frames the State Capitol. And for me, it will always be the pretty bridge we crossed to visit one of my uncles when I was a young girl and a the drive from Oakland to Sacramento was exciting.

So I ended up just checking out downtown Sacramento and was told to check this place out. The Tower Bridge is a major landmark for the city and is the location for when the city does fireworks for New Years. The bridge is adjacent to the river walk path that follows up the Sacramento river. I definitely think its a neat site to check out and is worth stopping to take a look at. The bridge is essentially a big elevator that moves out of the way for ships, didn't read anywhere if the bridge is still in use. It also serves as a border for Sacramento County and Yolo county.

Starting off my vacation in Sacramento, I found that my hotel was right next to the Golden Tower Bridge. Each and every day I walked the promenade that adjoins Tower Bridge and sat to enjoy the weather and watch the view. The giant gold structure is big and beastly yet beautiful with those golden arches. Reminds me of my home sweet home. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/V6YRX5nK08un4Ub8YmB_JQ?select=UduPcMWfIVMAYRaIIpzSog Sometimes when you have time to reflect, you notice all the beautiful things around you and appreciate the little things like watching the bridge go up and down to let the boats pass. The birds that fly in rotation around the tall towers. I watched the sun bounce off of the golden tower and took numerous pictures that looked like paintings or postcards. I was there, loving every moment of my vacation and Tower Bridge. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/V6YRX5nK08un4Ub8YmB_JQ?select=kIeJxvvYzZS4AM3kZd_GSQ

How do you rate a bridge in Sacramento? Well, it is functional. It is very photogenic. I know I am home when I see it. I just like it!

Cute little yellow bridge. Very popular in the downtown area. Embassy suites is right next door. Great view from our room.

I took a detour from my usual run around the Capitol to visit this landmark and it was beautiful. I did some research and this bridge was built over 80 years ago with money from Roosevelt's New Deal to support a growing population and to make it easy to cross in case of a war. The cost of this bridge was $1 million ($17 million today).

Sac the new Oakland?! View Awesome view of Sacramento! i love the view day and night or all day. During day time i like to eat at nearby restaurants and just gaze into the wonderful view of the tower bridge. Sometimes i like to pack a light lunch and just eat it nearby as well. During night time, i like coming here to see the glowing golden bridge. Love how the lighting reflects off the bridge depending where you stand. Also looks amazing again the dark sky, and comes out amazing in photos as well during night time. This is one of the main attractions in Sacramento, where i like tot ale out of town guests for a picture. Location Awesome location in Sac downtown. Love how it is attached to old sac and this makes it even more special and doing 2 things at once. When i come visit the tower bridge for sure, i will visit old town sac or walk through it too. Occasions What to do July 4th FREE fire works right by the bridge, to take some awesome pics! New Years eve Awesome environment to countdown to a new year with friends and family and love ones. Christmas During x mas, old sac is all decorated with x mas lights and a big x mas tree. Perfect environment to take pictures, and get the pics developed and send out as a post card to love ones who are far away. Or Just coming here to take a deep breath and just relax the mind and let the eyes absorb the view. Parking There is a parking structure right in old town sac, that is usually where i would park. Also there is free parking in old sac on certain days int he evening. Also lots of meter parking during day time as well.

Pretty chill scene I like to come to when I'm in town with gal pal. Located near raley field and old sac, the perfect place to sit down and admire a piece of sacramento history. I literally sat down on a bench for over an hour comfortably having stimulating conversation with the perfect weather. Took a stroll underneath the dock as well. The type of experience that money can't buy..

Beautiful vertical lift bridge that still holds some excellent photography potential!

Ive watched and crossed this bridge so many times passing in and out of Sacramento. It used to be if you went to West Sac it was not so great. With all the Raley rebuilding it's more fun to traverse the bridge. One of the more photogenic things in town at night and it's a way to see the river and a shortcut out onto 80 west

Beautiful Bridge, especially for an event or just plain sightseeing. Truly best seen at night due to the lights, but also a nice location for a summer walk. One of the most fun times I've had on the bridge was to race across it while running a 10k with the Change of Pace foundation.

This bridge is so cool! It's a lovely bright yellow color and if you're lucky enough to catch a glimpse of it around sunset, it looks like it's glowing. Also lucky: having a chance to see it in action, lifting for large boats to pass underneath. It's not a drawbridge, it's a vertical lift. Spend some time hanging around the bars & restaurants in Old Sac and when you hear the siren blow, scurry over to the riverside to watch! It's now an official historic landmark....it connects West Sac to Old Sac.

A three day weekend staying across from Tower Bridge in Sac has given my husband and me lots of time to walk the promenade in front of the pretty yellow bridge. Walk after walk, day and evening, and we've yet to see the bridge lift. We're leaving a little disappointed by this fact, but find the bridge to be beautiful, even in its lowered state. (Should we call the number posted on the bridge to report to dispatch an approaching giant ship? ...probably not...) The promenade is great for bike and pedestrian traffic. It parallels the river and railroad. Amazing views of the water, train, and bridge. Perhaps if you're lucky you could capture a single picture of all three, if you time it right.

The Tower Bridge is such a wonderful piece and place of California history! I loved viewing it lit from my walk and the local restaurant. Joe's Crab Shack during the early evening hours with light reflection on the river underneath in late November. The photos that my friends have taken captured a unique beauty that can't be seen from the average visit. Definitely worth visiting again!

Nice place for pictures! Worth checking out if you're in the area. It's just a quick walk across the bridge too and it's right by old town Sacramento.

I feel like a contrarian giving a lower rating for this bridge than the others. However, it's a little underwhelming and trafficky. Mainly, I'm trying to provide context with this rating. Putting it in relation with other bridges out there. Please see my other reviews I might feel differently if I see the vertical lift in action

A beautiful, simple, yet popular landmark in Sacramento the Tower Bridge links West Sacramento to Sacramento, leading right into the heart of Old Sacramento. During my grand adventure walking around the city this was one of the first historical landmarks I came across. It's beauty did not disappoint! As a bonus, take a walk underneath the bridge to get close to the Sacramento River and chat with locals who own the boats tied to the dock.

Few landmarks are as iconic a symbol of Sacramento ( or any city) as the Tower Bridge. It's a gorgeous, glowing and still operating drawbridge that is the symbolic centerpiece to our great city. And it's actually gold...take that, Golden Gate Bridge. If you're a local, you know the bridge well as the uniter between downtown and West Sacramento. It's been used for everything from outdoor dinners to marathons. I frequently ride my bike past it and it's a special treat to catch them raising the bridge's massive massive center section to allow a ship to pass under. Besides the capitol, it's also probably one of the most photographed landmarks in the city. If you've been to Sacramento and aren't familiar with the ol' Tower, it's time you check it out!

I have been living in Sacramento all my life and I have never once admire the Tower Bridge. I finally got a chance and this bridge is awesome to view at all angles especially at night. I believe it connects downtown Sacramento and West Sacramento. You can see Raley Field home of the AAA team for the San Francisco Giants on one end and Old Sacramento on the other. If you are crossing the bridge be careful because it goes up but they will warn you if a boat wants to cross under.

I'm sitting at an outside table on the upper deck of the Delta King enjoying the beautiful glow of this landmark at night. The Tower bridge just raised to allow the Hornblower cocktail cruise boat to return; I've seen the bridge raised and lowered 5 times since I sat down here just before sunset and opened a bottle of Barbera. Just a bridge? No, not at all. When planning for the Tower Bridge started in 1934, officials knew it had to be something special. It is on the highway that leads directly to the State Capital building; you can see the Capital straight ahead on the bridge. So it was designed by an architect in Art Deco style. The mechanical parts; cables, sheaves, counterweights, gears, motors, etc. were encased in the tower structures to hide them and maintain the style. Form and function, with form losing nothing to function. The Tower Bridge is a historic landmark, a local icon, a functional piece of engineering, and a marvel of great beauty.

Just had a very nice dining experience at Tower Bridge. My server David was absolutely the best. Very attentive and professional yet extremely personable. Food was delicious. True farm to table. Anyone hesitant to dine at a "hotel" restaurant should seriously reconsider this place. Again kudos to David and his team. These guys know how to do it.

I love this bridge! The gold paint is appropriate for Sacramento as it is an obvious for some, or subliminal cue for others representing the gold bars which were key in creating Sacramento.

If you do not like to spend your vacation walking around homeless drug addicts and drunkards of all ages stay on the N side of Capitol Ave and away from the concrete Promenade. Plus there have been multiple attacks on people S of the Tower Bridge along the river and more than a few dead bodies. If you must walk, run or ride that section and come upon Humanoidus Drukenus or other such lower life form just act like you're in the forest and have come across a not so happy Grizzly bear. Do Not make eye contact or attempt to consume anything from their food stashes (the garbage bins) and either pass with extreme caution or back away slowly. Do not attempt to run as most have bicycles to chase you with.

Beautiful views and well kept up bridge. After crossing, you can eat at Joe's Crab Shack or Tower Bridge Bistro inside of the Embassy Suites.

This bridge is absolutely stunning at night. When the lights point at the bridge, it gives off a shiny golden color. It's a very short walk, but an awesome view of the river and old Sacramento. A perfect first date walk! ;)
