The boat is 5 times bigger than the man inside. On the back we can see some old buildings and also old caravels. The people are probably going to fish or take a walk by the water. Everything looks very old.

Monument Big Ben is the nickname for the great bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London, and often extended to refer to the clock and the clock tower, officially named Elizabeth Tower, as well.

The tower was completed in 1858 and has become one of the most prominent symbols of London, England and Great Britain, often in the establishing shot of films set in the city.
