When on vacation in London, there is one landmark that you can’t help but notice, and that it is Big Ben, not named due to it’s sheer size, but after the first Commissioner of Works, Sir Benjamin Hall. It is 315.9 feet high! It has four clock faces which are 23 feet squared and the minute hand alone, stands at 14 feet long and the numbers on the clock face are 2 feet tall.
