Located in historic Bok Tower Sanctuary, Bok Tower is a tribute to the American Dream by a Dutch immigrant that was granted great success. The tower houses 60 carillon bells and offers concerts to the surrounding gardens and visitors.
The coordinates were taken on the other side of the mote around the tower. The tower is not accessible to visitors, but visitors can view the carillonneur via video.
The sundial is just one of the fantastic carvings in this tower.
