    The clock tower, known as the Kowloon Railway Bell Tower, was built in 1915 and is a symbol of the steam train era. It was originally located in Kowloon Railway Station. In 1975, the Kowloon Railway Station was relocated and the clock tower is the only remaining building, indicating that it was once the starting point of the Kowloon Railway and is considered a landmark of Kowloon. The exterior of the bell tower is simple and elegant, and visitors can only view it from the outside and cannot enter the interior of the bell tower. The bell tower was completed in 1915 and has been listed as a legal monument since 1990. The main body of the bell tower is made of red brick, with marble inlaid in four corners and a 7-meter lightning rod on the roof. The clock tower faces Victoria Harbour. It originally had a large copper clock. Every night, the clock can convey a few miles away. The melodious "Victorian Harbour Bell" was once a scene of Hong Kong.

    Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Terminal is definitely a place for tourists and Hong Kong people to check in. You can enjoy the scenery of Victoria Harbour and Guangdong Road. There are many famous shopping spots, and you can definitely enjoy the Bell Tower and Cultural College.
