There are a lot of places of interest in Great Britain.
There are both modern and ancient monuments, like Stonehenge and Hadrian Wall, Durham castle and York Cathedral. 
Britain also has many interesting museums. For example one can visit the Steam Boat Museum in Embleside . The oldest ship in this museum — her name is “Dolly” — is 150 years old. In York the tourists are usually attracted by the National Railway Museum. It contains the history of Stephenson's invention of steam locomotive.
But the main attraction, no doubt, is London places of interest. Among them there are: Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, St Paul's Cathedral, London Bridge, the Tower of London.  On the Houses of Parliament one can see the famous Tower Clock Big Ben, the symbol of London. Big Ben is the real bell which strikes every quarter of an hour. Another place which you can admire is Buckingham Palace. It's the residence of the Queen. London is also famous for its beautiful parks. Hyde Park is the most democratic park in the world, as anyone can say anything he likes there. Regent's Park is the home of London Zoo.
Visiting this country, don't forget about its natural attractions such as the Highlands, Loch Ness, where some people think a large monster lives and the Lake District, the place, associated with the history of English literature.

The name "Big Ben" is generally known to describe the clock tower as a whole. However, "Big Ben" is actually the principal bell within the tower.
There are two theories of how the bell got its name. The first suggests that it was taken from the nickname of a champion heavyweight boxer of the time called Ben Caunt. The second and more probable explanation, is that it was named after the bulky Welshman Sir Benjamin Hall, who was First Commissioner of Works from 1855 to 1858 and whose name was inscribed on the bell.
The Clock Tower is 96.3m (316 ft) tall and the Bell weighs 13.8 tonnes. From the ground floor there are 292 steps to the clock room, 334 steps to the belfrey and 393 steps to the lantern (known as the Ayrton Light)
A light shines above the clock face whenever Parliament is at work after dark.
Big Ben is not open to the public.

This inspired the Romans to build a small fort, probably around 43 AD, and, starting late in the 2nd century, they built a "castrum" called Regulbium, which later was part of the chain of Saxon Shore forts.
