Surin Circle Clock Tower stands in Phuket Old Town, surrounded by colorful Sino-Portuguese buildings, cafés and shops. The pale yellow and cream clock tower is a handy landmark on a walk through the area, and its lights make it especially photogenic after dark. Benches beside landscaped ponds with fish offer a place to pause. The roundabout carries traffic, so explore on foot and treat the tower as a stop along your Old Town route rather than a destination that needs a separate trip.
A clock tower in Old Phuket Town
The Surin Circle Clock Tower was built in 2003. A radio mast previously stood on the site before it was dismantled because it was no longer in use. The tower’s pale yellow and cream coloring suits the Sino-Portuguese architecture around it.
The landscaped area around the tower has artificial ponds with fish and benches. It gives you a place to sit between stops as you explore the old town.
Part of an Old Town walk
The tower sits at a traffic junction, and the surrounding streets can be busy. It is easy to include while walking through Phuket Old Town, where cafés and shops are nearby. Museums are also close, and a night market takes place on weekends.
The tower is often lit in the evening. If you plan to take photos, stay aware of traffic and use safe places to stop rather than stepping into the road.
