A London land mark and iconic structure craftsmanship at its best. Nice to see the scaffolding coming down after the £80m make over. Unfortunately today 8th April scaffolding hit the building whilst been removed. Hopefully not too much damage.

Even clad in scaffolding this iconic British building is instantly recognised all the world over.

No surprise really that the nickname of Big Ben for the Great Bell of the striking clock is extended to refer to the clock and the clock tower by most people. The official name of the tower in which Big Ben is located was originally the Clock Tower, but it was renamed Elizabeth Tower in honour of Queen Elizabeth II.

Definitely a place to linger and get your perfect picture.

The Big Ben is a beautiful piece of architecture that is envied all around the world and for good reason. The spectacle that it creates at nighttime for me is something that it can only offer. For me is the focal point of London, the first place that I would go visit when I arrive there and the last place that I will say goodbye too. Welcome back Big Ben.
Fun Fact: it is the actual Bell inside that is called Big Ben and not the tower.

What a classic structure made during 1860s.
View from London eye is also worth viewing.
There are many other tourist attractions near this place, which is definitely gonna take your day, and still you may want to come here again.
Amazing tourist attraction in London. Vibes are great here 😁
You can easily reach here through train.
Westminster or Embankment is the nearest station.

Majestic, huge, historic and elegant at the same time. A beautifully-looking building. Unfortunately it's still closed, but just by looking at it, taking photos from every angle possible is so much fun. If you are visiting London, it's a must-see attraction.

Big Ben or Clock Tower,I've seen it in movies,we've all seen this building at some point, but now I had the opportunity to see Big Ben with my own eyes!
I'm so in love with this place!
The highlight is definitely the famous watch, the fact that it is in the center of attention near Westminster Abbey, London Eye, Trafalgar Square and Sea Life,the Gothic Style Architecture,it is a must see it at least once in a lifetime!
Definitely the most beautiful view is from the height point of London Eye!
FANTASTIC!

London is a multicultural place. It is a city where you can enjoy and discover lots of places to meet and learn from its city magic. The Big Ben is one of the most visited places, how to miss that majestic clock that marks the hours with its beautiful sound leaving your heart happy.

It is the focal point of London and looks brand new after the restoration.
Welcome back Big Ben.
