NOTE: The Sundial Bridge is open FREE to the public from 6am to 11pm daily. The bridge actually "tells time" from 11am to 3pm. There are 17 white markers that measure time in 15 minute increments. So if you miss the 11am show you have 16 more times during the day to watch the shadow hit a marker. I need to mention that it's really not a good idea to point your camera or eyeballs at extremely bright sunlight like I did while taking some of these photos. If you can't visit the bridge during the daytime you can always check it out at night. The bridge really looks great at night with all the lights shining through the glass decking. The Sundial Bridge in Redding, California The Sundial Bridge is located just one mile west of Interstate 5 (i-5) at the Turtle Bay Exploration Park in Redding, California.
