View toward the Cunningham Clock Tower: A Historical Landmark of Peshawar, Pakistan This photograph showcases the breathtaking view toward the iconic Cunningham Clock Tower in Peshawar, Pakistan. Built in the year 1900, this architectural masterpiece was constructed in commemoration of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, marking her 60-year reign. The clock tower, a symbol of British colonial rule in the region, took its name from Sir George Cunningham, who served as the British Governor during that time and was the primary political agent for the British Government in the North-West Frontier Province. The clock tower, with its distinctive red and white stripes, stands proudly in the heart of Peshawar, a city rich in history and culture. Its western façade, as depicted in this photograph, offers a captivating perspective, with the clock's hands steadily ticking away against the backdrop of the clear blue sky. The tower's intricate design, featuring arches, columns, and intricate carvings, is a testament to the architectural prowess of the time. As the sun sets over the city, the clock tower casts a long, elegant shadow, adding to its timeless allure. This photograph not only showcases the beauty of this historical landmark but also transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Peshawar and the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan.
