- Menara Condong (Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan) — The town’s icon: an 8-storey clock tower built in the late 19th century that leans because of soft ground. It used to double as a water tank and now you can walk around the base and photograph the structure and riverside views; the clock mechanism and colonial feel make it a must-see.
- Sungai Perak riverfront — The stretch of river running through town is where locals gather at dusk, fishermen work, and small boats move goods. Walk the embankment for sunset, river photography, and cheap riverside snacks from hawker stalls.
- Pasar Besar (Central wet market) and morning hawker lanes — A lively market full of fresh produce, seafood and cooked-food stalls; the surrounding morning food lanes are the best place to experience Teluk Intan’s everyday

- Historic shophouse streets in the town centre — Rows of old Chinese and colonial shophouses with vintage facades, traditional stores and family-run eateries. Walking these streets gives a clear sense of the town’s trading history and is where you’ll find the real local life away from touristy spots.
