Sapporo Clock Tower 🇯🇵

The Clock Tower (時計台, Tokeidai) is a symbol of Sapporo. The building was constructed during the early period of Sapporo's development in 1878 as a drill hall of the Sapporo Agricultural College. In 1881 a clock purchased from Boston was installed. Today, the Clock Tower serves as a museum with displays about the building's history and Sapporo on the first floor. On the second floor are displays about the clock and a spacious ceremony hall that calls to mind the simple buildings of the colonial American Midwest. Access: The Clock Tower is four blocks or a ten minute walk south of JR Sapporo Station, and one block north of Odori Park. Admission fee: 200 yen #hokkaido #sapporo #awesomepic #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #summervacation
