This curious clock located on the pediment of the Congress Palace on Murillo Square is inverted compared to the usual clocks.
It is to be read from right to left, and its needles turn counterclockwise. The current president of Bolivia, Evo Morales, had it installed to challenge practices from the North.

L'horloge inversée
Cette horloge curieuse située sur le fronton du palais du congrès sur la Place Murillo est à l'envers par rapport aux horloges habituelles.
Elle se lit de droite à gauche, et ses aiguilles tournent dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre. Le président actuel de la Bolivie, Evo Morales, l'a fait installer pour contester les pratiques venues du Nord.

This clock would many advantages while one is sitting in the garden, Ie, time to get dinner underway ... Too much to do, can't sit out here all day ... Time to pick the kids up from school ... Time to put the kettle on (again) ... This crossword's taking ages to finish.
The list goes on.
But it does make a nice garden feature.
“When I do count the clock that tells the time,
And see the brave day sunk in hideous night;
When I behold the violet past prime,
And sable curls all silver'd o'er with white;
When lofty trees I see barren of leaves
Which erst from heat did canopy the herd,
And summer's green all girded up in sheaves
Borne on the bier with white and bristly beard,
Then of thy beauty do I question make,
That thou among the wastes of time must go,
Since sweets and beauties do themselves forsake
And die as fast as they see others grow;
And nothing 'gainst Time's scythe can make defence
Save breed, to brave him when he takes thee hence.”
― William Shakespeare, Shakespeare's Sonnets

The new clocks hung on trees by main pathways as you enter Hawk Wood are really useful for dog walkers and other forest users.
It's clear from the tree that they love us.

Located at the end of the beautiful promenade in La Rochelle, France is the "Great ClocK" (Porte de la Gros-Horloge), which is the gateway to the old town. It has a 12th century base and an octagonal Bell Tower original built in 1478 but rebuilt in 1746. Taken from across the Vieux Port.
The famous clocks at Canary Wharf from a recent visit by Caroline and myself to London.
We took loads of pictures having the time to review them is quite challenging time wise.
The clock is ticking ⏲️
