The setting isn't particularly well designed, nor is this the best view of Jaffa - yet it's somehow apparent as a tourist attraction.

Jaffa Clock Tower

Highlight • Monument

The clock tower in Jaffa is one of seven clock towers built in Israel and of the hundred clock towers built in the Ottoman Empire in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the reign of the Turkish sultan Abdul Hamid the Second. The towers were built as part of the modern reforms guided by the sultan, in order to conduct the empire’s cities by accurate, Western timetables.
According to the local tale, the tower was built at the initiative of Yossef Moial, a wealthy Jew of Jaffa, who erected the clock tower in order to save himself pestering by pedestrians who would come in to his shop to ask the time on their way to the train station.
Four clocks were installed in the tower – two of them showing the time in Europe, and two of them the time in Israel.

October 18, 2022,🇮🇱 Tel Aviv ⛪️ Jaffa 🕌
This morning we chilled on the beach, after that activity was announced: We decided to explore the roots of Tel Aviv. The still young city (founded in 1909) has its ancient origins in the south: Jaffa. All colonial powers had their consulates here and controlled some of the overseas colonies from here. We started near our hotel and passed the …

Actually, my first vacation this year was supposed to be on the frozen Lake Baikal.. but for reasons, that's rather bad at the moment.

So I looked for an alternative solution without considering that it is just as questionable, at least from a political point of view. But politics shouldn't be my topic here, I'll show you a …
