Photograph the iconic Old Chain of Rocks Bridge’s 22° bend, rusted steel trusses and sweeping Mississippi River vistas—classic Route 66 character with strong leading lines and skyline views of St. Louis. Best at sunrise or sunset for warm side-lighting and at blue hour for silhouettes and city lights. Parking is available at the lot off Chain of Rocks Rd; the bridge is pedestrian-only (check seasonal closures). Expect easy, flat walking from the lot; bring layers for river winds and respect the桥
