Ghari Ghar
Ghari Ghar, also known as the Clock Tower of Murshidabad, is a prominent landmark located in the Nizamat Fort Campus in Murshidabad, West Bengal. The clock tower, designed by Sagore Mistri, an Indian Bengali assistant of Colonel McLeod, stands in the garden space between the Nizamat Imambara and the Hazarduari Palace.
It is locally referred to as the "Big Ben of Murshidabad" due to its resemblance to the famous clock tower in London.
The clock tower features a heavy sounding bell and four masonry shields placed at the ground level corners. The dial of the clock faces eastwards towards the Bhagirathi River, likely for the benefit of sailors and passengers traveling on boats. The tower is a significant historical structure and adds to the architectural beauty of the Nizamat Fort Campus.
