Its distinctive chimes have marked the hours for generations, making it a symbol of British tradition and precision. The clock face, with its Roman numerals and ornate details, is a testament to the craftsmanship of the past. The Parliament Buildings, home to the House of Commons and the House of Lords, are a stunning architectural masterpiece.
