Home > Sightseeing > Kowloon > TST > Old Clock Tower The Old TST Railway Station Clock TowerThis strangely isolated clock tower on the water front near the Star Ferry on TST side is the remains of the old Kowloon Railway station which was a much loved building and as a very central location a popular meeting point. "I'll meet you beside the clock tower" sort of thing. So when the railway station was taken down and the rail tracks moved to a dead boring area in Hong Hum the clock tower of the Kowloon Railway station was preserved and is now a very odd landmark and reminder of the old romantic age of railway. You can't go into the tower itself but it makes for a nice, if strangely angled, photograph as you have to point your camera almost straight up! The area is nice though and you can then walk along the path towards the Avenue of the Stars.
