Japan: Bell of Time - Saitama (Gotochi)

I received this card last year, but I wasn't able to share it until now because it was sent to my Hong Kong address while I was in US.

This is a Gotochi card showing the Bell of Time in Saitama. It is a three story tower that has been telling time to the city's residents for 350 years and has been viewed as a symbol of the city. Currently, the bell can be heard four times a day (6 AM, 12 PM, 3 PM, and 6 PM).
