25、hen the construction began in 1173. It started to shift direction soon after construction because of poor foundation in addition to the loose layer of subsoil(底土).

27、r foundation that was built on a weak area of land. For compensating(补偿) the leaning position, the builders started to construct the upper floors with one side higher than the other one.
