Big Ben constructed using straw

Who would’ve thought that one could actually build impressive monuments using nothing but straw? Big Ben is one of them, where this world famous clock located at Britain’s Houses of Parliament has made its straw debut in a cornfield. Built using over 500 bales of stray, this 70-foot sculpture weighs tips the scales at more than 20 tons and is even equipped with a working clock just like its real world counterpart. Apart from that, the clock lights up beautifully so that one can always tell the time regardless of whether the sun is taking a nap or not. A recyclable building effort that is definitely worth commending.
