Standing at 44 metres tall, the Clock Tower was erected in 1915 as part of the Kowloon–Canton Railway Kowloon Terminus. Though the bustling station is gone, this red brick and granite tower, now preserved as a declared monument, survives as a reminder of the history of the railway in Hong Kong.

It has served as a memorable landmark for many Chinese immigrants who passed through the terminus to begin new lives in Hong Kong and beyond. To celebrate its centenary, the Clock Tower’s bell chimes every hour from 8am to midnight.
