Why it's in the guide

London's most beautiful bridge, connecting Chelsea to Battersea since 1873. At night, the 4,000 LED lights make it look like something from a fairy tale, it's been called "the Trembling Lady" because of the vibration when troops marched across (soldiers are still ordered to break step). Walk across at sunset for one of the best views in London. The views from Cheyne Walk towards the illuminated bridge are iconic. A Chelsea landmark in every sense.

Light it up at night for one of London's prettiest Victorian iron suspension bridges — read the sign asking troops to break step on the way across.
