停止: 5 minutes
In 1901, following the death of Queen Victoria, a decision was made to build a grand memorial hall in her honor. The Victoria Memorial Hall was constructed between 1903 and 1905, adjacent to the Town Hall. Designed in the Palladian style by the renowned architectural firm Swan & Maclaren, it was officially opened on October 18, 1905. To unify the two distinct buildings, a prominent 54-meter-high clock tower was built between them in 1906, connecting them with a common corridor. The clock faces and peal of bells were donated by the Straits Trading Company.
