A picturesque scenery is formed, transporting you to a whole other world. So, if you’re yearning for an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the perfect spot!
2. Deen CT Corner, occupies a single shoplot at the heart of Ipoh old town. For easy navigation, look out for Kamdar at Ipoh old town. Speaking about experience and confidence, this place has been operating for over 20 years. While “CT” stands for “Cendol Tulen”, rest assured that the cendol here speaks for its originality and deliciousness itself, especially when it comes to its signature Cendol PJK – P for “pulut” (glutinous rice), J for “jagung” (sweet corn) and K for “kacang” (kidney beans). However, this is a self-service eatery. Additional charges may imply for the takeaways.

3. Ipoh Square (Dataran Ipoh) might not appear much to look at. Government buildings surround the green manicured space. A giant Malaysian flag flies in the center.But aside from its stately appearance, the park houses the unusual MBI Clock Tower. The three-legged tower stands like a tripod and looks like something out of an old sci-fi movie. After dark, the area lights up and transforms into a favorite hangout spot for young locals.
