Its story
The tower is one of the clock towers built in many cities in the late Ottoman period and has become the symbol of the Tarsus bazaar. With its cut-stone shaft and four-faced clock, it is easily seen beside the courtyard of the Ulu Mosque. It can be toured in a single stop with the bedesten and mosque around it.
