Menara Condong Teluk Intan / Teluk Intan Leaning Tower

The Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan, or Menara Condong, is the town’s most iconic landmark and a must-visit attraction when exploring Perak. Built in 1885, the tower was originally intended as a water tank to supply the surrounding community, but over time it leaned to one side due to the soft ground foundation—earning it the nickname “Malaysia’s Pisa.” Standing at 25.5 meters, the structure resembles a Chinese pagoda with its eight tiers and traditional roof design, reflecting the influence of the local Chinese community during that era. A visit to the tower offers both history and charm. Inside, you’ll find old photographs, informative displays, and a spiral staircase that leads to the upper levels, where the view provides a glimpse of Teluk Intan’s townscape. At night, the tower lights up beautifully, becoming a centerpiece for the town square and a favorite spot for photography. Surrounding the tower are local eateries, small shops, and a lively atmosphere, especially on weekends when families and tourists gather around. The Leaning Tower is more than just a quirky architectural wonder—it represents Teluk Intan’s cultural blend, resilience, and heritage. It’s a perfect stop for history enthusiasts, casual travelers, or anyone seeking a memorable snapshot of Malaysia’s past.

A charming historic landmark with a unique lean and great photo spots. Well-kept area with nearby local snacks and shops. Simple but worth a quick visit if you’re in Teluk Intan.

Very beautiful at night. Can enter during day, RM 2 adult and RM 1 kid. Climbing up the old leaning wooden tower makes you wonder if it's still strong enough.

Visiting the Teluk Intan Slanted Tower was a delightful experience! This unique landmark, often referred to as Malaysia’s own Leaning Tower of Pisa, is full of charm and history. Standing tall in the heart of town, the tower offers a picturesque backdrop that’s perfect for photos — especially at sunset when the sky lights up in beautiful colors. What I appreciated most was how well the tower has been preserved. The information boards around the area provide a glimpse into its fascinating past as a water tank and clock tower. The surrounding area is clean, with local food stalls, shops, and friendly locals that make the visit even more enjoyable. It’s a must-see if you're exploring Perak — whether you're a history buff, a photography lover, or just looking for a nice spot to relax and soak in some Malaysian heritage. Definitely worth the stop!

Do visit during the day, buy ticket (RM2) and visit inside for more historical moment of this tower with top view around. Then come back again for the light during night time (different time different vibe).

One of the main reason why you decide to visit Teluk Intan. Visit in the evening when the light on. There foods trucks and food stalls operating in the evening. Nice place to hangout.
