The Huazhi Memorial Bell Tower, located in the center of Ipoh, not far from the City Hall, was built in 1909 to commemorate Bizhi, the first British colonial political department in Zhangzhou. Bisch was assassinated while traveling to Brazil in 1875 and died in office, and the tower was built and named in honor of him. The bell tower is engraved with murals of Buddha, Moses and Shakespeare, representing the development of different civilizations, the blending and tolerance of different cultures, and it is worth seeing.

    JWW Birch Clock Tower, located in Kinta District. It is a beautiful memorial tower for Birch. The tower is in a square inside Old Ipoh. The four-sided tower is surrounded by four statues representing four pillars of British administration. The location is strategic and convenient to visit.

    One of heritage place at Ipoh. Food court is just next to it and walking distance to Concubine Lane. Recommended to visit!

    A historical memorial at Ipoh. A nice place for a snapshot. However, Ipoh City Council should took after the tower better as lots of parasite trees began to grow. That tarnished a bit the value of that historical tower and the image of Ipoh as a whole.

    A great reminder of the old time when this was the only way to know what time it was! I love the pairings around the clock!
