Victoria Bridge Cafe (River View)
Victoria Bridge Cafe located in front of Sungai Perak and Historic Victoria Bridge. This cafe is famous for is Mee Kari Seafood. At the price of RM10 you’ll get large bowl of Mee Kari with a seafood variety. The seafood is huge and you can taste the sweetness of the fresh seafood.
There’s also a dessert like durian crepe and pavlova which is worth a try. Its delicious and not too sweet.

Ulu Kenas, the gems of Perak
Most Malaysians which from outside of Perak doesn’t know that somewhere in Kuala Kangsar there is a small gem called Ulu Kenas. It is actually a water fall which will only be opened fully to public in October 2022. The water was crystal clear, super cold and soothing. If you are into fishing, you can do that too. Lots of clear water fish to be found. You can also do barbecue but of course you have to bring your own tools. What’s important is that you have to keep the place clean. in case of you are wondering.. public toilets are available as well with a minimum charge (sorry I forgot how much). Btw, I recommend nature lovers to try having a short gateway here. I bet you’ll love it! 🥰#gooutside #naturalwonders

Hidden Gem near Ipoh
If you're looking for something really offbeat here is one for you. This place is in Kampung Bawong about an hour drive from Ipoh. You will drive through villages and plantations before reaching the trailhead. The first waterfall is next to the car park. If you're up for an adventure the trail on the left leads you deeper to visit a few more bigger waterfalls. #Malaysia #perak

Local Community supported campsite near Ipoh
If you're looking to experience a stay in wooden hut and support a local community this is a great place. This place is called Lata Penyel and it's about 80 minutes drive from Ipoh city centre. You would be able to stay right next to the waterfall in wooden huts. You can cook up a meal and stargaze at night as well. There are toilet and car park facilities provided #Ipoh #malaysia #awesomepic #couplestrip
The Zaandam Mountains are undoubtedly an excellent ecological treasure that combines mountain and forest landscapes with indigenous culture. This well-preserved pristine mountain forest is not only famous for its deep and tranquil pristine natural scenery!
When visitors arrive at the Zaandam Mountains, they will first be surrounded by lush and green primeval woodlands. Walking along the winding trail, sometimes passing through winding and dark forest paths, and sometimes enjoying the beautiful scenery of the wide and open forest, it gives people a remote feeling of being deep in nature.
When you climb to a high place and look far into the distance, you can see the scattered mountains in the distance and appreciate the magnificence of nature!

Iskandariah Palace Kuala Kangsar 🏰✨
At first sight, you will be stunning by the appearance of the Palace. The architecture is flawless and looks majestic with yellow coloration which is the color of the Sultan in Malaysia. Design itself showed the traditional sides of Malay architectural designs and it is located near to the new Istana. 👣
Such a big area of beautiful scenery. It looks really of historical value. We can take a lot of pictures at any angle to get a perfect photo. There is also no ticket or fee to enter the palace, very worth it! 😎
Must visit place!!! 👍🏻✨
