4About it

Big Ben is the nickname of the great bell in the clock tower of the Houses of Parliament in London, England, and people often use it for the whole tower. The tower was finished in 1859 and, since 2012, has been called the Elizabeth Tower. The bell weighs about 13.7 tonnes, and the clock has four huge dials, one on each side.

The hands show the real time where you are. Tap it: the hands spin all the way around and land back on the right time, all four dials glow, and the bell swings in the open belfry.
