The Sapporo Clock Tower is the oldest clock tower in Japan.
The clock tower, officially called the Former Sapporo Agricultural School, was built in 1878 based on Dr. Clark's concept.
It was later designated as a national important cultural property and continues to work as a clock tower to tell the time to the citizens.
