PROGRAM DETAILS

Ipoh Heritage Walk is a leisurely stroll around the compact and historic old town area of Ipoh. Take in several notable historical landmarks around the city. In just over 130 years Ipoh transformed itself from a sleepy Malay village to the bustling city it is today.

The Ipoh Heritage Walk starts at the Railway Station, a superb example of colonial architecture and might end at Town Padang Mosque, constructed in 1908 in Moghul style. Continue past the mosque at Ipoh and onto the Birch Memorial clock Tower, built in 1909 in memory of James WW Birch, Perak’s first British Resident.

Stop for a coffee at Old Town coffee shop and from here get lost in the numerous hidden cobblestone alleyways of the old town experiencing the rich culture of the old-world colonial era.

Finish the walking trail at the vibrant concubine lane which is home to the best antiques in Ipoh and fantastic architecture.
