Japanese Carbide Factory Chimney

This 18m high brick chimney of a Japanese Carbide factory for ammunition use
is situated at Kampung Tanjung Bangkung in Malim Nawar,Perak.
It was build during the Japanese Occupation time and there is a base of another chimney
beside it which was never completed because of their sudden surrender.
The chimney is circular in shape,6m diameter at the base and about 3m on top with 4 arches.
The other remnant of the factory is a part of the fencing.





































There is 3oomm diameter hole here.
