The Houses of Parliament building in Westminster, London, with its famous Clock Tower. 

The nickname Big Ben [{GoogleMap location='Big Ben, London, Great Britain' zoom='15'}] is today frequently applied to the tower, the clock, and the bell, but originally it applied solely to the largest bell inside the tower. 

The clock holds the distinction of being the worlds largest four-faced chiming clock.
