Summary
[edit]DescriptionBig Ben and Elizabeth Tower (8061986684).jpg | Big Ben is the nickname for the great bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London, and is generally extended to refer to the clock and the clock tower as well. The clock tower holds the largest four-faced chiming clock in the world and is the third-tallest free-standing clock tower. It celebrated its 150th anniversary on 31 May 2009, during which celebratory events took place. The tower was completed in 1858 and has become one of the most prominent symbols of both London and England, often in the establishing shot of films set in the city. The Clock Tower will be renamed the Elizabeth Tower in a tribute to Queen Elizabeth in her Diamond Jubilee year. |
