Jubilee Clock Tower, Clock tower at Light Street and Beach Street intersection, George Town, Malaysia.
The Jubilee Clock Tower rises 60 feet high with Moorish architectural features, displaying four clock faces at its upper section.
Local merchant Cheah Chen Eok funded the construction with 30,000 dollars to mark Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebration in 1897.
The clock tower reflects the British colonial influence in Penang through its architectural design and commemorative purpose.
The monument stands near Fort Cornwallis, making it a central reference point for navigating the historical district of George Town.
The structure tilts noticeably due to damages sustained during World War II bombings, yet continues to function as a timekeeper.
