Annoying fun fact that I heard and will now repeat as if I knew it all along. Elizabeth Tower is the name of the clock we see, and Big Ben is actually the bell inside that we hear.... Who knew!!
Anyway Big Ben is a marvel that's totally worth your time to check out and snap a few pictures. One of the best viewing spots is right from the Westminster Bridge. I don't think there are any kind of tour options for Big Ben, but just coming here and checking out the surrounding area is worth it.Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - 8 de abr. de 20242 check-ins
Hello mate, thanks for following me on my london journey.
.
This place is a must, if you don't come here for a selfie, we're you even in london?
.
The structure is amazing. Just walking close up and taking pics and videos is stunning.
.
Yes lots of crowd during week day and weekends. Bring comfy shoes because there is lots of walking involved. Becareful of your belongings. The pick pocket is real and quick without you knowing. One bump and your belonging is missing.
.
Mama had been pick pocket here. Her bag with the big compartment was opened. The little hidden pocket was unzipped in the big compartment. She has lots her pounds. She didn't even know til we had to pay for something in the gift shop. Make sure you wear your coats over the fanny pack or bag. If crossbody make sure it's high up so it's in your sight or can control. Don't let it swing near the hip or swing behind the butt area.

Big Ben is iconic. When you think of London, how can you not picture the iconic clock tower!
For some of the best photos, cross the river to view Big Ben from the other side of the Westminster Bridge. There are spots near the river that are much less crowded but you can get some gorgeous pictures.
As you near the tower, you get to see just how massive it is! It is so gorgeous and beautiful. My favorite sight in London!Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - 26 de set. de 2023
We got out of the tubes at Westminster station and we're right in front of Big Ben and the Thames River.
The Westminster clock is an iconic landmark. It was built in 1863, stands 316 feet tall, and the climb from ground level to the belfry is 334 steps. Its base is square, measuring 40 feet on each side. Dials of the clock are 22.5 feet in diameter. All 4 nations of the United Kingdom are represented on shields featuring a rose for England, thistle for Scotland, shamrock for Ireland, & a leek for Wales.Helpful 12Thanks 2Love this 12Oh no 0 - 6 de jun. de 2023
Big Ben is more beautiful in person!!! Right across from London Eye and Queen Elizabeth Station, you will find Big Ben.
The area is historic, crowded and very touristy. Watch your purses as you go through the thickness of the crowd on Westminister Bridge.
I love the feeling of being in such a historic area. If you visit London it is a must-see. Put it on your list.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Michael D.São Francisco, Estados Unidos0331841 de abr. de 2024
I haven't seen Big Ben in over five years or longer, and the updates look amazing. It is very scenic and a quintessential London view.

When in London...
We only walked past to get some photos. I definitely recommend stopping by top of the hour to hear the dings and dongs lol.
Wanted to see if Ben really was big. Ben wasn't big. Ben was massive.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - 21 de out. de 2023
Had to come see Big Ben with the parliament buildings while in London. I highly recommend doing a hop-on, hop-off bus tour to get the whole backstory. It's a beautiful clock tower and made for some great photo opportunities for us. Even on a cloudy day, it was fun to see the structure. Lots of walking space nearby, so easy to get a view on various sides.

Big Ben is a British cultural icon recognized around the world. The historic landmark is one of the most prominent symbols of the United Kingdom where just one glimpse of it and people are like, "aah yes, that's Big Ben, that's London!" Even my little one was excited to see Big Ben and it was all he could talk about until we finally saw it in person. Sure it's a huge tourist attraction, but it's a must see and cannot be missed.
Big Ben, which is the nickname for the Great Bell in the Great Clock of the Palace of Westminster, was built in the mid 1800's. In 2012, the tower which Big Ben is located was renamed from Clock Tower to the Elizabeth Tower to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. After four years of careful renovation which came at a hefty price tag, Big Ben now has an even brighter gold exterior and refreshed clock face. It's beautiful and shined so brightly on a clear summer day. It looks so much more bold and shiny compared to our first visit 13 years ago and I'm so glad we got to see it again.
I highly recommend sitting in the park across the way to take in the view and admire the gothic architecture of one of the world's most famous clocks.Helpful 8Thanks 0Love this 10Oh no 0
