Are There Unusually Many Clocks in Canberra's Parliament House?

No. There is no evidence that Australia's Parliament House in Canberra contains an exceptional number of clocks. The building's design (opened 1988, Mitchell/Giurgola & Thorp) features a blend of contemporary and classical elements, extensive Australian art, timber, marble, and landscaping—but clocks are not a highlighted or abundant feature.

Standard functional clocks exist in chambers, offices, and corridors as in any large workplace. The idea of "many clocks" appears to be a myth or confusion with another building (e.g., the Old Parliament House's King's Hall clock, or the floral clock in Commonwealth Park).
