Introduction
The Swan Bell Tower, also known as the Perth Bell Tower, is located on the banks of the Swan River in the center of Perth, and was built in the millennium. Its unique appearance, like a pair of swan wings, has become one of Perth's landmarks. The tower is 82 meters high and the top is made of glass and steel pipes, and it collects 18 large bells from all over Britain, playing different music when they are struck. It is one of the largest sets of bronze bells in the world today and the only royal bell tower outside of England.
The sixth floor of the tower is an outdoor observation deck. During lunchtime, musicians play beautiful music and visitors can enjoy the sound of the bell and music nearby. On Wednesdays and Fridays, staff will teach visitors how to ring the bell. Visitors can also participate in fun activities, such as throwing coins into the mailbox and choosing their favorite music on the electronic menu to enjoy the beautiful sound of the bell. In addition, visitors can also receive free recording and postcard services on the bell tower, and can send their own video links to friends to enjoy the beauty of the Swan Bell Tower. At night, the tower opens up its twinkling lights, leaving a deep impression on people, so it is recommended to visit the Swan Bell Tower at night to enjoy its night view.
