Harmony Bell Tower

The Ganzhou Harmony Bell Tower is situated on the south side of the approach bridge to the east bank of the under-construction bridge in Hugang Village, Shuidong Town, Zhanggong District. It is a comprehensive theme park centered around a sightseeing bell tower, incorporating urban landscape green spaces, historical and cultural exhibition areas, European-style streets, and a reception center. The project blends cultural significance with openness. The design is divided into two parts: one is a European-themed park, featuring the bell tower, auxiliary buildings, a reception center, a European-style street, a central square, and green areas; the other is a commercial and residential area. The total land area of the project is 485 acres, with an estimated construction investment of 290 million yuan.
The Ganzhou Harmony Bell Tower stands 113 meters tall with nine visible floors. It faces the Yuhong Tower across the river and adopts a modern European architectural style. Inside, it includes exhibition areas, display zones, a "Corridor of Time," an observation deck, and a revolving restaurant. The clock tower will house the world’s largest mechanical tower clock, with a face diameter of 12.8 meters, surpassing the famous Big Ben in the UK. The theme park features statues of renowned scientists in timekeeping and astronomy from ancient to modern times and from China and abroad, arranged by time zone. The tower clock will chime once at sunrise each day, every half hour during the day, and on the hour. The project is scheduled for completion by the end of June 2010. The Harmony Bell Tower will become a new iconic landmark in Ganzhou, adding the perfect finishing touch to the city’s enhanced charm and stature.
