Tower Clock—Beijing West Railway Station, China - Town Clocks on Waymarking.com

The busy, West Beijing Station is located to the west of Beijing city. From here a myriad of high and low-speed trains traverse the vast distances of China. The station itself is busy, and complicated. If you are a non-Chinese speaker I suggest you arrive even six hours before your departure, as things can get complicated. Buy your ticket downstairs, go upstairs to enter, then go down stairs to the ground floor level to depart. Lots of inspections of yourself, your ticket, and your possessions. Only the ground floor ticket area is accessible without a ticket. The station is on the subway line, also lots of taxis and buses. Take care.

Outside the main entrance to the station, on either side of the entrance, are two tower clocks, maybe ten metres tall. These clocks are gold in colour, with a black face, and white hands. The dials are unnumbered, rather plain. They are easily visible as you approach the station, and remind a busy traveller that trains depart on time in China!

I waymarked the two clocks as one. The waymark location is the eastern clock.
