Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan...安顺斜塔,

马来西亚国内闻名的倾斜古塔，是由安顺著名慈善家、商人兼建筑师梁全忠在1885年所建，百年来一直屹立在安顺（Teluk Intan）市中心。目前，安顺斜塔已被列为国家博物院管理的古迹，由于斜塔上置放着一座大钟，当地人都称它为大钟楼。

　　整座古塔深具中国塔风味，不过却与另一举世闻名的意大利比萨斜塔有异曲同工之妙。正因媲美比萨斜塔，安顺斜塔因而沾光不少，知名度大增，成为马国最独特、绝无仅有的斜塔钟楼。

　　根据历史的记载，这座斜塔最初的用途是储水。斜塔顶楼上有个大蓄水池，为当地人供应自来水。

它本来也不是现在的倾斜样子，据说在1889年至1895年之间，由于吡叻河河水泛滥，使这座水塔往市镇街倾斜，并陷入泥土内。从此以后，它便成了现在的倾斜样貌，也不再作储水用途。

　　日本南侵马来亚时，此塔摇身一变，成了刺探军情的了望台。八层高的安顺斜塔楼高85英尺，共有110级阶梯；塔内每层楼都有一道宽约6英尺的走廊，置身其中，安顺街景一览无遗。　　去年，吡叻州政府在斜塔附近建造一个广场，并安装古式灯饰，使斜塔在夜间大放光明，散发魅力。是转载于爱旅游脚处转载就可以.

The tower is located in the center of a square surrounded by Jalan Pasar, Jalan Selat, Jalan Bandar and Jalan Ah Cheong. The tower was built in the year 1885 by Leong Choon Chong, a Chinese contractor and was originally used as a water tank to store portable water during dry season for the people living nearby. It is also used as a time keeper of the town as there is a huge clock on top of the tower. The clock was made by J.W. Benson of Ludgatehill London and the cost of building it was contributed by the local people. The building itself is made of bricks and wood.

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. Each storey has a height of 5 metres and you will need to go up 110 steps to reach the top of the tower. The reason for the leaning are because of the soft ground on the base of the tower and the weight of the water tank.
