Big Ben, London.



Two years ago, I was in London with my friends for my first time. I visited many places but one of the most that I like was Big Ben which is the great bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster.


   


The Big Ben was built in the 1800s and It’s believed that gets its name in honor of the first responsible for building, Benjamin Hall.
I found interesting this monument due to its size because the tower is sitting on a basis of 15 meters each side, has a weight estimated at 8,667 tons and has 96.3 m in height. Moreover it seems interesting to me the fact that is an important reference in the city of London.
