Big Ben is iconic of London and possibly the world’s most famous clock. It’s definitely the world's biggest four-faced, chiming clock. It still works and is very reliable. BB is attached to the Houses of Parliament in Westminster. As anyone who grew up watching kids TV in the UK knows, Big Ben is actually the name of the bell rather than the clock or tower. Whatever, it’s a great place for photos and one of London’s leading sonic landmarks.
