☕ Ipoh Wall Mural 🎨

One of the main attraction in Ipoh is it's street art done in 2014 by Ernest Zacharevic which prompted many other artists to start this street art wall mural trend. If you are in Ipoh, you could very well see most of these murals on your feet as they are all located in a few streets in the old town pretty close by. There are also map to guide you finds these interesting street art, including Ernest Zacharevic’s original paintings scattered around Ipoh Old Town. Have fun hunting!!

Ipoh Oldtown is one of the prime locations to hunt mural art.

I found these murals inside the small street named Market lane. There are several mural art on the wall within this area. It is a story about local Kopi Tiam culture and also the happiness of kids playing with their peers. Be careful that this street is still operates as a public street and accessible by cars.

Chakori Cafe @ Ipoh

Chakori cafe is one of my favorite cafes in Ipoh. The ambiance is very nice; inside decor is pretty, very instragramable. One side is the window view of the market street, the other side is inside the cafe with an unfinished wall of ruined wall. The cafe's menu change regularly; have a special cake of the day, gelato of the day, and dessert of the day. Waffle, gelato and sorbet are also available here. On my last visit, I get a mango cake with passion fruit. This cafe also has salted caramel coffee, which is so interesting. The price is reasonable, I love the coffee here, and the staffs are friendly. Order and pay at the counter, open from 10 am to 11 pm.

Exploring the murals of Ipoh

Following on from the success of street art in Penang, Melaka and elsewhere in Malaysia, the city of Ipoh commissioned talented Lithuanian artist, Ernest Zacharevic to produce a series of murals with sponsorship from Oldtown White Coffee. His art has transformed scruffy shophouse walls into works of art, some of which use props to give a 3D effect. His work is of a transient nature (like famous British artist Banksy) and the damp mould stains on the walls caused by Malaysia's humid climate will eventually efface his work so go and see it while you can! He created 8 Murals in Ipoh, one of which (Girl) has since been painted over: A Paper Plane An Old Uncle Drinking Coffee A Yellow Hummingbird A 'Kopi' Break A Bag Of Coffee Girl On A Wall In Bandar Timah Old Town Relives Nostalgia With Trishaw Tin Mining Town With Chinese-Style Painting

This time, my mother lived in a Malaysian style home. Malaysians like to live in this small house with a yard. The front and back of the house are hung or placed in jars filled with various colors of flowers and the beautiful colors of the houses. The house structure looks simple, but keeps each room cool and ventilated, with a cloister at the individual turns. The house is a modern material, but the decorations inside are antique and very harmonious with the atmosphere of the house.

Guide: Must-visit Instagrammable spots in Ipoh, Malaysia.

[Must-visit Check-in Spots in Ipoh, Malaysia][1]The filming location of the movie "The King and I", the old train station known as the "Taj Mahal of Ipoh". Located across from the Old Town Market in the center of Ipoh, it was designed by British architect Arthur Benison Hubback and built between 1914-1917. A typical combination of Moorish and Victorian styles, it looks like a museum on the outside and is one of the few century-old train stations still in use in the world. Inside, it is not very big, and you can see the train outside the ticket gate at a glance. The lawn square in front of the station is a great spot for taking photos and checking in. Across the street are many government agencies, all of which are historic old buildings full of character. [2]For breakfast, you can go to "Eight and a Half Hong Kong-style Dim Sum Tea House" located in Damao District. Just look at the long line of people waiting outside, and you'll know that this dim sum restaurant is both delicious and affordable. [3]Try the local delicacies in Ipoh, such as "Lao Huang Jia Ya Cai Ji" in Old Street. The photo shows the whole chicken I packed to go because I was in a hurry, so there are no bean sprouts and it doesn't look like the standard dish. When I got to this restaurant, there was a long queue and they told me that they don't allow takeout, only dine-in. I explained that I came all the way from China just to try their chicken, and they finally agreed to pack the whole chicken for me. It costs 76 Malaysian Ringgit (equals to 120 RMB) per chicken. [4]You can buy "Ipoh white coffee" as a gift. While the whole world is drinking black coffee, Ipoh is famous for its unique white coffee. Famous brands include "Old Town" and "Train Head". I bought a pack of "Ipoh Train Head White Coffee" for 18.9 Malaysian Ringgit (=31 Chinese Yuan) at Old Town. (To be continued)

LUNCH AT MIKER PIZZA IPOH

after check out, we rush here. definitely a good pizza but so hard untuk cari parking. waste around 1hr pusing area situ untuk cari parking. pada sedap terus jadi rasa tak worth 😭 we ordered 2 flavour, ultimate kampung & crazy meat. nice crust and flavour. recommended to just tapau and eat dalam kereta or jangan pergi waktu peak hours kalau nak dine in!

Canning Dim Sum

Been first time here since got a lot of recommendations. This place so nice ah! 😍 I’m so satisfied with the overall hospitality. Very excellent service 💯 No need to wait for so long for food. The staff will bring you the dim sums for you to choose. You may choose as many as you want! You may order the seasonal menu as well as in the menu book. The dim sums are tasty, staff was very helping as it was my first experience here. If you are planning to visit Ipoh, you should take a step into Canning Dim Sum. They got halal certified so worry no more. Also the place is clean. Not recommend to hang out or lepaking & chit chatting with friends cause a lot people are queuing outside the restaurant 😂 Consider them as well!
