Ipoh World (IpohWorld) is an education-based, not-for-profit organisation established in 2004 to promote awareness and appreciation of Perak, the Silver State of Malaysia and its unique, diverse and rich heritage, with particular focus on Ipoh and the Kinta Valley. In 2006 we ran our first public exhibition "The Story of Ipoh: From Feet to Flight", in cooperation with Darul Ridzuan Museum. Since then, supported by sponsorship, we have run several more exhibitions while continuing to seek further financial support for a permanent, lively and interesting heritage gallery for Ipoh, thus enhancing both education and tourism. This current project, our first permanent, museum quality exhibition is our first step to fulfilling this objective. Advance booking is recommended as space in the building is limited. You may book via our website by clicking on Exhibitions or by the QR Code on our brochure. It is quick and easy and you receive a booking confirmation by return.
Educational and informative visit with guided tour by an English speaking guide who was very friendly and knowledgeable, an introduction to the Hakka culture and their tin mining forays in Malaysia, recommend a visit here, location is near to concubine Lane, best to make prior appointment but can walk in as well and if they have space they will accommodate you, there is no entrance fees but highly recommend that you leave a small donation for them to upkeep the place, we enjoyed our visit here

It also provide the discovery of the origins and evolution of the heritage herbal tea. Furthermore, it is the gallery about the inspirational life of Dr. HO Kai Cheong, the creator of the health-giving Ho Yan Hor tea.
Excellent visit, a man whom begin his life as a doctor and successfully manage to share his herbal tea in the world. A true philanthropist whom never cease to give back to his needy society. Such character and man is rarely seen anymore in Malaysia. My first visit to Ipoh after many years and my desire to visit and get to know how he had manage to bring up herbal tea importance to the current modern society. A journey which evolves through time. Lovely museum, please continue to keep up preserving this lovely tradition and journey of herbal tea. THe journey ends with a lovey herbal tea trial, bought a gift pack myself being an avid user of Ho yan hor herbal tea :)

Once an office, hotel, and home of many families, two shophouses built in 1900 fell into disrepair over the years. After an extensive conservation process, they have been given a new lease of life, and is now home to 22 Hale Street Heritage Gallery. Nestled in Ipoh’s historical enclave, 22 Hale Street connects the past with the present. Discover the history of Ipoh and her people in a fun and interactive way as you tour the galleries. Check out the products in the gift shop and bring home exclusive merchandise and publications. Also, on display are creative products and crafts by local creatives and social enterprises that 22 Hale Street aims to support. The gallery also has an event space open for rent where exciting arts and culture initiatives happen!
I booked this visit via Airbnb (because that's where I saw it first), RM 10 for a guided tour. I was led by two guides and they were both super friendly, knowledgeable and humourous. I learned about the history of Ipoh, and I got to see some great artwork on display in the museum too. Definitely would recommend this visit.

It was raining and this was a colorful hideaway. Pleasant surprise, including the shop downstaris that fashions fine furniture to order and for export using local wood. The museum is clean and well arranged, showing rooms staged as in other times. Many nostalgic pieces incl. a barbers chair, radios, old Mah-jong table and pieces, old wooden umbrellas, photos etc.

A great place to stay inside in a hot afternoon. The entry fee is RM5.00. There are a lot of interesting exhibits. Worth spending an afternoon there. But sometimes there are a lot of kids running around from the school visit.

This is a must visit in Kuala Kangsar. Entry is free, can be visited in less than half an hour. Enough time to read the small exhibition on the ground. Really great architecture. Colours are so vibrant.

This small old workshop for coffee Browing is nice and interesting. The only spot I enjoyed to visit is this boring city. But the coffee is local though low quality. I didn't buy some. Just bought some biscuits haha

First time visited gopeng heritage house will little fees paid. Worth every penny cent as feel appreciated with how the owner briefed us the history of this heritage house. Sad story is the inventor of this heritage house longer in this world. You can the all the generation photo at the entrance of the wall. Listened to the story how the inventor build and keep those antique furniture and others is interesting. Inclusive how he go find all the original woods ( more than 150 years old) and supervise the construction and design really impressed me. Hoping more visitors and the little muzium will maintained for next few generation.
