Abraj Al-Bait Clock Tower, Mecca, Saudi Arabia:
This clock is ahead of its time, it holds the record for the world’ tallest
clock tower (140 feet), it houses one of the world’s tallest hotels
(Fairmont's 76-storey Makkah Clock Royal Tower), and boasts the world's
largest clock face (42 metres wide). The clock also marks daily prayers with
calls announced to the Muslim world from the tower's loudspeakers that are
audible six kilometres away.
