As one of London’s iconic buildings, Big Ben is part of the British Parliament building and the largest clock in the UK. Built in 1859, it is located on the River Thames in London and is known as the world-famous Gothic building. On June 2, 2012, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Elizabeth II’s throne accession, Big Ben was officially renamed as Elizabeth Tower. Serving as one of the world's most famous landmarks, London's Big Ben is lovingly recreated in a heavy duty diecast metal.
