Official Site | Tripadvisor Reviews & Information
Please note these are two separate sites within the Parliament complex. Big Ben is the world-famous clock tower. The Houses of Parliament are where official governance operations of the United Kingdom are conducted. The entire complex is a beautiful piece of Gothic Revival architecture worth checking out (particularly when seen from the River Thames at night!).
Are any deals, promotions, discounts or coupon codes offered for Big Ben or Houses of Parliament admission?
For Big Ben, the majority of tourists simply want to see the large clock attraction from the outside and maybe take a photograph or two. That is completely free! Big Ben is located on the western side of the Westminster Bridge near the intersection with Victoria Embankment. For those wanting to tour Elizabeth Tower (that's Big Ben's official name)…you can – just not right now. The tower is undergoing extensive renovations with expected completion sometime in 2022.
