Arlene House (aka Kapitan Chung Thye Phin and Phin Kee Chan) was built in 1905 by Kapitan Chung Thye Phin, a prominent Tin miner and last Kapitan China of Perak and Malaya. It was used as the Tin Headquarters & Trading House to manage his vast business activities in Malaya. The building had undergone 10 years of preservation, conservation and restoration works to return to its former glory. As part of its adaptive re-use activities, "Made In Ipoh", a Heritage, History, Culture and Art edutainment Gallery-Museum has been established showcasing the Stories, Life and Legacy of The Last Kapitan Of Malaya and Ipoh - The City That Tin Built. Made In Ipoh is open for Walk-In (un-guided) visits on weekend with admission ticket charges and pre-register private group tours (guided) at prescribed fees announced from time to time on its Facebook pages and Instagram. Arlene House is also open for rental usage for suitable photo/videography works, events and functions.
