This Victoria Memorial Clock Tower was donated by Cheah Chen Eok, a wealthy Penang citizen, in 1897 on th occasion of the diamond jubilee of Queen Victoria's reign. The 60ft-high (18.3m) clock tower—symbolising 60 years of the Queen's reign—was only completed in 1902 when she had passed away. The tower cost 35,000 Straits Dollars to build. During World War II, bombs dropped on King Edward Place and caused the clock tower to tilt slightly. Rule Brittania!
