Post a Review
This 44 metre tall clock tower used to be part of the former Kowloon-Canton Railway Terminus. The construction of the Tsim Sha Tsui terminus started in 1912, and the clock tower was added in 1915. The original building was subsequently unable to handle the large volume of passengers and the government decided to relocate the terminus to a larger building in Hunghom. When the terminus was demolished in 1978, the tower was retained and it has since become a Hong Kong landmark.
