Rajabai Clock Tower

A clock tower on the campus of Mumbai University, because the campus is not open to visit, so the clock tower can only be seen outside the wall. The exterior has a British Tudor architectural style, very calm and solemn details, but unfortunately can not be appreciated closer.

[Location] On our way from the sea to the Indian Gate, we saw the Rajabai Bell Tower across the off-campus cricket court of Mumbai University. It is85.3 meters (280 feet) tall and was designed by British architect Sir George Gilbert Scott with Big Ben in London as a template and completed in 1878. The tower is a fusion of Venetian and Gothic architecture. Funded by Premchand Roychand, one of the founders of the Mumbai Stock Exchange, and named after his mother Rajabai. [Landscape] Looked at a circle of steel shelves outside, I don't know if it is being repaired. The trees on the edge of the cricket court are shaded by trees, and the hot and humid weather in Mumbai has grown tall, covering the lower half of the tower, and there are many high-rise buildings in Mumbai that make the tower look less tall. The cricket court below is more vibrant.

A magnificent bell tower in the south of the University campus, with a height of 85 meters, was sponsored on condition that the tower was named after his mother. Roach's mother was blind. As a believer in Jainism, the tower had a big clock, and the clock struck at a fixed time.

There is such an English clock tower next to the High Court in Mumbai. It is beautiful from a distance, but it is found that it is very old and in disrepair. It is a bit tattered, but it still rings the clock on time. This is the clock tower built by the British during the Indian colonial period. It is very similar to the Big Ben clock in London. It is still in operation.

Located in the campus of the University Fortress of Mumbai, you can enjoy the style of British architecture that echoes the scenery of the South Asian Tropic. The public is now unable to access it and can view it on Karmaveer Bhaurao Patil Marg Road.
