I want to tell you about one of the most beautiful sights of London - Big Ben. It’s the symbol of Great Britain and the largest and the most famous clock in the world. Big Ben is a tower originally. It is one of the highest towers of Westminster Palace. Official name of the tower is the “St. Stephen's Tower”. The clock is called Big Ben after Sir Benjamin Hall. He was a big man. He had the job to see that the bell was put up. One day he asked in Parliament, "Shall we call the bell St. Stephen's?" And someone said for a joke, "Why not call it Big Ben?" Now the bell is known all over the world by that name. Big Ben has become a popular souvenir for tourists. Big Ben can be often seen in famous films also. All the Londoners who live close to Big Ben can hear how the bell strikes thirteen at New Year’s Night.
