1982, when the China Academy of Sciences sent personnel to inspect the Feng Liang Venta, it was determined that the tower was tilted 5 degrees. The main reason for the tilt is that the clay ground in the southwest corner (in the direction of the tower gate) is fractured, sinking within the range of about10m in diameter, and the Liang Shi at the top of the tower gate is fractured. In April of 200 1 year, a reporter from Fengshun TV station went to retest and found that the tilt was 10 degrees. I didn't expect it to be as high as 5 degrees in just 20 years, which shows that the inclination of the leaning tower is caused by natural external forces.
After hundreds of years of earthquakes, flash floods and storms, the leaning tower of Feng Liang still stands. What is the reason? Now it stands on Niuguling Mountain with its unique charm and becomes a wonderful scenery.
This tower belongs to the category of "Feng Shui Tower", and 1988 was listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Fengshun County.
