New Clock Towers in Sik Town, Kedah

What is Clock Tower?

Clock towers are a type of structure that houses a turret clock and has one or more clock faces on the upper exterior walls. Many clock towers are freestanding, but they may also be attached to or built on top of another structure. In brief, the lock towers were first used in towns in the 11th century to warn residents of emergencies, when it was time to pray, and other important events. In today’s society, the uses of the clock are mostly for ornamental purposes in today’s culture. The advancement in technology may have rendered them obsolete, but it has had little effect on their visual appeal, elegance, or style.
