3 mins drive or 8 mins walk and you have found the best Ipoh fair in town. A must try "Chu Cheong Fun", "Small Pig Bun", "Curry Mee" and the famous "Wan Tan" Mee. The shop opposite call B and G Cafe has just as much variety and good food.

This is a proper sit-down air-con restaurant that serves one of the best food. May be slightly a bit pricey as compared to the coffee shops around this area but it is really worth a try.

Review from one of the guests at Trip Advisor, quote: "This is a lovely, quaint cafe that's just a street away from the much-adored Concubine Lane. With its high ceiling and rustic home-like ambiance, walking into 22 Hale Street feels like walking into a towkay's (rich man) house. As I visited the place after lunch, I had only desserts and drinks there which were tasty and refreshing!"

Review from Trip Advisor: This museum is a gem, full of history about the Hakka tin miners in Perak and filled with a good collection of old relics. The guides are very informative and gave a very interesting recount of the days gone by. They also showcase some artistic murals painted by students from the local art institute. This museum is a must visit place for all visitors to Ipoh.

Sightseeing

A review from a tourist on Kong Heng Square: Kong Heng Square Artisan Market is only made up of three lots. Ipoh Craftnerds, The Living Art and AM Zakka Store- carry genuine, hand-crafted items. So, if you are into custom-made stuff, this is the place to go in Ipoh Old Town for your fix. Another attraction in the area is a feature called “Talking Trees”. Obviously, these trees don’t talk but the folk at Kong Heng Square Artisan Market have combined their resources to decorate and dangle motivational quotes on the trees around the area. Get motivated, be inspired, when you visit Kong Heng Square Artisan Market. Business hours: 11am – 5pm (weekdays except Tuesdays) & 10am – 5pm (weekends &
