Woke up and randomly decided to head up to Teluk Intan, Perak to see the famous leaning tower of Teluk Intan which is said to be the second leaning tower after the amazing leaning tower of Pisa at Italy. The structure was actually built as a huge water tank to supply water to the nearby residential areas. But now it just served as the clock tower. The entrance fee was just RM 2 per person and you can climb up to 110 steps to explore the inside of the tower. Now only opens up to level 3 since the top area was where the huge water tank was located. The tower now became a phenomenon and famous tourist spot at Teluk Intan.

Address: Lot 1&2, Komplex Menara Condong, Jalan Bandar, Pekan Teluk Intan, 36000 Teluk Intan, Perak Highlights: This 25 meter high tower in the small Perak town of Teluk Intan is also known as the Malaysia's Leaning Tower of Pisa. From outside, it looks like a 8-storey tower, but once you walk in, you will noticed there is only 3 stories. The pagoda style structure has been greatly influenced by Chinese architecture because the majority of the population of the town at that time was Chinese. It was built primarily to store water for local usage during the dry season and in case of fire. Since it began leaning over due to soft soil foundations it has become a tourist attraction. 😬 Opening hours: 8am to 5pm daily Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Location: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #createwithtrip #culturalwalk #visitperak #tower

Visiting Menara Condong was such an interesting experience! This unique leaning tower, often compared to the famous Pisa Tower, has its own charm and history. 🏛️✨ From the outside, the structure looks like a traditional Chinese pagoda, and when I went inside, I learned about its past as a water tank and clock tower. ⏰ Walking around, I really enjoyed the heritage vibe of Teluk Intan town surrounding the tower. It’s a small yet meaningful landmark that shows Malaysia’s blend of culture and history. 🇲🇾#travel #menaracondong

I didn’t know what to expect from Teluk Intan, honestly. It’s not one of those places that always pops up on travel lists, but maybe that’s exactly what makes it special. The town has this calm, unbothered energy—like it’s just doing its own thing, quietly holding onto its history and charm. The Leaning Tower is what brought me here, and yeah, it’s tilted, but also kind of adorable. It’s surrounded by kopitiams and small shops, and the vibe just feels… real. Not overly touristy.

📍Menara Condong Teluk Intan Perak The Menara Condong (Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan) is a fascinating landmark in Teluk Intan, Perak. This iconic tower, built in 1885, leans at an angle similar to the more famous Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, though it’s much less known internationally. It was originally constructed as a water tower to supply water to the town and later became a clock tower. The tower is around 25 meters tall and has a charming, historical feel, with a unique, Chinese-style architectural design. You can actually climb up the tower, and from the top, you get a nice view of the surrounding area, including the town itself and its old-world charm. #newyearnewtrip

#summerdestinations **Menara Condong Teluk Intan**: My visit to Menara Condong in Teluk Intan was quite interesting. This iconic leaning tower is a unique architectural landmark with a rich history. The structure, which leans due to subsidence, offers a glimpse into the area's heritage and is a popular spot for photos. The surrounding area is well-maintained, making it a pleasant place to explore and learn about local history.

On the way to Ipoh, we stopped at Teluk Intan in Perak. According to the instructions on the tour guide's sign, the Leaning Tower of Anshun was built on Tuluk Intan Island in 1885. Its earliest purpose was to provide drinking water to the locals, and was later transformed into a bunker due to its strategic location. Although there are differences in location, function and scale, from a certain perspective, the Leaning Tower of Anshun is similar to the world-famous Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. Both have experienced wind, rain and vicissitudes of life. He seemed a little tired after that, unable to bear the burden of the past. Although the Leaning Tower of Anshun is not the focus of most tourists coming to Malaysia, it is still worth a stop here to taste the local chee cheong fun.

2023, the year I gave birth to my beautiful baby and I thought I’d be travelling less, but hey, I actually have been travelling more than I expected although it’s only in Malaysia. We went to several places in Perak, Perlis, Terengganu, Pahang & Negeri Sembilan at the time I thought, is impossible with a baby. The last photo is just me rocking my baby in the middle of a park in Ipoh😂 Hopefully we get to travel to Singapore this year!! #2024wish #justdoit
