Big Ben, the nickname for the Great Bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London, traditionally rings on the hour regardless of whether Parliament is in session. However, it also chimes at quarter hours. The bell's ringing is a significant aspect of London's heritage and serves as a time signal for the public.
