Shanghai's leaning tower
上海的斜塔
A nearly 1,000-year-old tower on Tianmashan Mountain in Shanghai surpasses the Leaning Tower of Pisa in terms of age and tilt, according to a tourism official in the city.
上海旅游部门的一位官员称,无论从历史悠久程度还是倾斜度上看,上海天马山上一座有近千年历史的古塔都已经超过了比萨斜塔。
The tower leaned to the southeast at an angle of 6.51 degrees in 1982.A new survey finds it now leans at an even further angle of 7.10 degrees.
最近一次的"体检"发现,这座古塔朝东南的倾斜度从1982年的6.51°增加到了7.10°。
The tower, built in 1079 during the Northern Song Dynasty , has seven levels and is about 20 meters high.
斜塔共七级,高约20米,建于北宋年间的1079年。
