Ipoh Town

Ipoh is the capital city of Perak State in Malaysia. It's located towards the north of Kuala Lumpur city with bus ride of approximately 2.5 hours and train ride of 3 hours. A bus ride will cost around RM23, while train ride will cost from RM12 to RM22. :)

The city is full of many old yet nice buildings. During the last trip to Ipoh, I took some of the pics for you all to see. :) hehe...

the train station, quite a nice building right? :)

the Indian Town, full of Indian shops and restaurants.

one of the abandoned shop lots. quite old design.

old shop. beside it is the trademark tall flat, which you can find a lot of good restaurants beside it. Refer to the post here.

notice the staircase? it's different. hhehe..

behind the shops, along the dark streets. :)

the bridge that connects the old town and the new town.

owh, the Kinta river? :)

Next time shall take more pics of the Ipoh surroundings. hehe...
