It’s almost impossible to talk about London without mentioning Big Ben, or the Elizabeth Tower, as it’s more technically known. The clock tower has been silent for the past three years because of the construction. Also in 2022, the clock tower’s new style is introduced.

The clock tower’s chime will be heard for three years following the New Year’s Eve celebration, thanks to the detailed embellishments, glass panels, and Prussian blue hands and numbers. After a glimpse of one of its faces in late November, the entire refurbished edifice will be open to the public on December 31st! After a year of silence, the Big Ben clock tower in London is finally ready to chime again.

It will chime 12 times to mark the beginning of the year in 2022, which is widely referred to as Elizabeth Tower. Having undergone restorations, the clock tower is now ready to chime again.

The public was able to see one of its faces in late November. New blown-glass panels with amazing details have been added to Big Ben’s all-new design. Prussian blue has been applied to the hands and numbers.

New Year’s Eve in London is expected to be a huge success for this attraction. As Big Ben chimes again on the banks of the Thames River, people will be delighted. The fully refurbished clock should be available for public viewing by the end of the year. Using its temporary electric mechanism, the UK Parliament says it will be struck once more.

The neo-Gothic clock tower was designed by Augustus Pugin and completed on May 31, 1859. The century-old clock tower is getting a modern makeover. The clock’s hour hands are now made of gunmetal and weigh a combined total of 300 kg. As a result, it weighs more than 300 times more than the minute hands. One of the world’s most iconic landmarks is the huge clock, which was bombed by the Nazis during World War II. Although it was severely damaged in May 1941, by Nazi air raids.
