Om
Hurtige fakta: Det fireetagers stentårn stammer fra slutningen af 1860'erne og rager 30 meter op over den omkringliggende bebyggelse. Selvom det har fungeret som både vagttårn og fængsel, er dets hovedopgave i dag at huse byens ur, hvis ringen kan høres over hele centrum.
Højdepunkter: På toppen hænger en klokke på 450 kilo, som ringer hver hele time, og dens dybe tone blander sig med bølgernes brusen fra den nærliggende havn. Når du stiger op ad de 82 stejle stentrin til toppen, venter der en udsigt over byens tage, koralrev og på en klar dag endda øen Moorea i det fjerne.
Insidertips
- Expect 82 narrow stone steps without a railing, wear sturdy footwear with good grip.
- The best photo is from the tower gallery facing the harbor at sunset.
- The clock chimes every hour on the hour. If you want to experience its full sound, plan your climb just before the top of the hour.
- The tower is not air-conditioned, so bring a bottle of water with you.
