Kuala Kubu Coronation Clock Tower

Kuala Kubu Bharu which was formerly known as the Kuala Kubu placed in Administrative Resident, the first British Resident of President Sir Frank Athelstane Swettenham, followed by JP Rodger and Edward Maxwell. At that time, Kuala Kubu is a gateway to the state of Pahang. Due to major floods, the British moved their administrative centre in Kuala Kubu Bharu on May 6, 1931.

The coronation clock tower erected beside the police station on top of the hill. It was built to commemorate the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in the 1930s. It looked abandoned, the clock was not functioning, but this clock tower is important landmark that tells the history of this town.
