Hong Kong was the colony of British before 1997. When I was a kid, I tried to think that London has Big Bang while Hong Kong has TST Clock Tower. This time, I'm going to introduce the Tsim Sha Tsui Clock Tower to all of you!
Tsim Sha Tsui(TST) was once the terminus of the Kowloon-Canton Railway(KCR) in age of British colony HK. The construction of the Tsim Sha Tsui railway station and its clock tower started in 1913 and were completed in 1915. Since the government plan to build the Hong Kong Space Museum and the Hong Kong Cultural Center later so the main building of the Tsim Sha Tsui station was demolished in 1978 and the station was moved to Hung Hom. However, the Clock Tower of the station was not demolished and was kept in the original place. Nowadays, you can see the clock tower, which is forty-four metres high, proudly stands at the waterfront and harmoniously intergrates with the HK Cultural Center and the HK Space Museum. It becomes a famous landmark in Hong Kong nowadays.
