Amasya Clock Tower, Clock tower in central Amasya, Turkey.

The Amasya Clock Tower features stone construction with traditional clock faces visible from multiple directions, positioned on an elevated location in the city center.

The current tower, completed in 2002, stands on the foundation of the original 1865 structure that was destroyed during the 1940 earthquake.

The tower functions as a central meeting point for residents and represents the Ottoman period's influence on public architecture in Turkish cities.

Visitors can access the tower site throughout the day, with numerous restaurants and shops located within walking distance of the structure.

The tower's positioning on a hill provides visitors with extensive views of Amasya's traditional Ottoman houses and the Yeşilırmak River below.
