Big Ben - The Clock Tower is the world's largest four-faced, chiming clock. The structure is situated at the north-eastern end of the Houses of Parliament building in Westminster... The Clock Tower has also been referred to as The Tower of Big Ben and, incorrectly, St Stephen's Tower, which is actually the spired tower towards the middle of the Palace and is also the main point of entry for attendees of debates and committees. (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Ben) - Big Ben est le surnom de la grande cloche située dans la Tour de l'Horloge (Clock Tower) du Palais de Westminster, le siège du parlement britannique (House of Parliament)... Le bâtiment fait face à la Tamise, entre le Pont de Westminster (Westminster Bridge) et l'Abbaye de Westminster (Westminster Abbey). (Source: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Ben)
