Squid Angels blessed this lens => Do you have TIME for this quick Quiz?

The intro photo is a close-up of the Clock face on the Tower of Westminster Palace which we fondly call BIG BEN CLOCK. Big Ben belongs to the landscape of London and without it, London will never be the same. Do you have Ale and some Fish and Chips around? You can enjoy them while solving the Quizzes.

London at Night featuring Westminster Palace

The picture depicts Victoria Tower from the left, House of Lords next to it, Westminster Abbey at the back and the famous Big Ben Clock on the right.
Next to Big Ben is the Westminster Bridge crossing the River Thames which mirrors the buildings at night. Beautiful sight.

London Eye at Night

Which is better? The Riesen Rad (Ferris Wheel) in Vienna, Austria or London Eye in England? The London Eye at the peak of summer is quite uncomfortable. The Riesen Rad has the turn-of-the-century flair or history about it. London Eye is modern.

The Tower of London

The Tower of London at the forefront of this photo was a prison. Numerous famous people were imprisoned there. To name a few, 2 wives of Henry VIII (Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard). Thomas More, Thomas Cromwell were also imprisoned during the reign of Henry VIII. Sir Walter Raleigh was one of the early explorers of America but Queen Elizabeth I ordered his incarceration at the Tower of London. She was jealous.

Now, it is housing the finest crown jewels of England.
