Ipoh in Perak state is the third largest city in Malaysia, but often overlooked as a place to visit. In this travel guide, we explored the 5 best reasons why you should add it to your Malaysia itinerary!
We explored all of the best things to do around the city: including the architecture of the historic Old Town, the incredible street art trail and tasted the BEST local food. We even headed out of town to see the ruins of Kellie’s Castle, the cave temples of Kek Look Tong and Perak Tong and relaxed in the Lost World of Tambun hot springs.
So it's safe to say, there is plenty to see!

Terimakasih Malaysia, you have been a dream! 🇲🇾 We were only supposed to stay in this country for a couple of weeks around new years, but we ended making it our home for 2 whole months. We were blown away from the sights, the food and of course all of the people we met along the way. I hope you enjoy the last episode of the series, but I’m sure we will be back one day. Next stop, Philippines 🇵🇭

migrated to malaysia in 1982 and settled down in ipoh. the best city in the world. the hot spring used to be hotter and it was considered a remote place without any development. even the stone age drawing is fast vanishing. ipoh used to be dead iespecially after 6.00 pm 80's and 90's . there was no shopping malls or theme parks.

Malaysia is one of my favorite countries in Southeast Asia. It attracts a much highly quality of foreigners than Thailand, Laos or Cambodia. I plan to film more for my channel there this year. Ipoh certainly nicer than Penang at least for now it is.

@OneShotAdventures 4 года назад

@@destinationsunknowntheroadsles Not so many western tourists in Ipoh, but more domestic and from other Asian countries. Penang is a huge island though and even Georgetown is very big. So if you avoid the obvious areas, it's ok imo.

Haven't been to Malaysia, but I find this very informative; will definitely consider Ipoh when I visit. A friend of mine gifted me Old Town Coffee sachet pack. I thought it was just a brand name but here I discovered it's an actual place 😅

Anyway the Blue Lagoon has nothing on these hot springs! I love it. I didn’t even go to the blue lagoon in Iceland as I wasn’t impressed. I’m impressed by these springs.

The Blue Lagoon was very cool, but Iceland has some better natural hot springs imo. Nothing like this place though haha

@GoTravelOnTheCheap 4 года назад

April likes the rainbow colored buildings! Kellie's Castle looks so awesome--we like the fact that it was never completed. Do you know how the white coffee tradition came to be? I've had an egg tart in Europe before, but I can't recall if I liked it. I don't think my "baby feet" could handle the reflexology path, hahaha. LOL at your expression over the knife massage! How is that even safe??! At first glace, it does seem to be an eclectic/cheesy place, but we can see how the hot springs park was fun!

@OneShotAdventures 4 года назад

Like most things in Malaysia, the coffee history is very mixed! Some British, some Chinese. The tin miners used to drink it in Ipoh.

@GoTravelOnTheCheap 4 года назад

Gotcha... Like always, we loved watching your latest videos and we pondered/discussed how we can be better--do that every time 😎

I am planning to visit here next month actually, great tips here. Concubine lane, I wonder how that street got the name...It definitely is very similar to Penang. Kellies castle definitely looks a great attraction there and I can't wait to try the food again in Malaysia. Excellent video.

@OneShotAdventures 4 года назад

Will Kupfer thanks Will!

@mayfoo02 4 года назад

Concubine Lane was named after the bevy of mistresses the rich Hakka tin miners used to keep in the shops that lined the street. In the evenings, they could be seen standing at the balconies , calling out to the merchants down below haggling over the prices of their wares. If you get to Ipoh, the one place you mus visit is the Han Chin Pet Soo Museum, curated by Rtd. Cmdr Ian Anderson, who has been living here for decades. Its a museum recognised by the UNESCO and you'll be able to get the full history of Ipoh here. Unfortunately, right now, we're under lockdown due to covid 1

@-BigSky- 4 года назад

I got another version. The properties from the concubine lane were being assigned to 2nd wife from the tin mining tycoon as incomes for rentals.

@jjsamuelgunn1136 4 года назад

Concubine Lane is now a revitalized tourist spot. None of the businesses or shops there now existed ten years ago. But there was only one shop there that locals actually patronized because of it's delicious home cooked food. It's still there, but rarely featured in tourist vlogs.

@OneShotAdventures 4 года назад

Thanks for sharing!

@irfanaziz1854 Год назад

I’d be interested to know this shop. We’re vlogging in Malaysia and hunting for the authentic Malay side of it rather than the touristic spots.
