Lonely Planet review for Bell Tower

First constructed in 1272 but felled numerous times by fire, the tower’s present structure dates from 1745. Climb up the steep steps (carefully) to gawk at the 63-tonne bell.

    We mostly just stopped in here because it was right near our hotel. It is a pretty building and you have a nice view of the city from the top. It isn't a must see but the area is cool. The drum tower next to it is also pretty cool and there is a little ceramics studio next door with a cool little collection worth stopping in if you are in the area.
