伊丽莎白塔(the
Elizabeth
Tower),旧称钟塔(the
Clock
Tower),俗称大本钟(Big
Ben),联合王国国会大厦威斯敏斯特宫的附属钟塔,世界上著名的哥特式建筑之一,伦敦乃至英国的标志性建筑。
伊丽莎白塔是坐落在英国伦敦泰晤士河畔的一座钟楼,是伦敦的标志性建筑之一。钟楼高95米,钟直径7米,重13.7吨。每15分钟响一次,敲响威斯敏斯特钟声。自从兴建地铁Jubilee线之后,伊丽莎白塔受到影响,测量显示伊丽莎白塔朝西北方向倾斜约半米。
伊丽莎白塔于1858年4月10日建成,是英国最大的钟。塔有320英尺高(约合97.5米),分针有14英尺长(约合4.27米),伊丽莎白塔用人工发条,国会开会期间,钟面会发出光芒,每隔一小时报时一次。每年的夏季与冬季时间转换时会把钟停止,进行零件的修补、交换、钟的调音等。
