Hulu Kinta

Travel Guide

Boys riding in a paper plane. This piece and a handful of others are throughout the historic Ipoh city area. The city has signs with the locations of the street art, making it very easy to find. Below each piece is a gold or silver plate telling you the name of the piece and where the others are located. Super handy if you are looking for them specifically!
Cameron Highlands, Malaysia. Hiking through the lush green tea fields in the Cameron Highlands. #TakeAHike #TroveOn #packsandaplan
A relaxing place to appreciate nature. You are going to take a small boat to cross the lake to the other end. There you can relax on the native Malay houses, enjoy the playground and there is a mini zoo also. There are trees and shady areas to have picnic. The boat will cross back and forth to pick up the visitors every 30mins more or less so you don't need to worry on the ride back. There are fishes and turtles you can feed on the side of the lake for the kids to have fun.

Penang and Malacca are the more famous old cities of Malaysia, and they both have their fair share of #streetart, but don't miss Ipoh Old Town as well. #Troveontuesday

It was such a uniquely designed hotel and even though it is not in town, it doesn't take to long to order a grab ride to go out and in. The only thing that could be improved on is if the shared kitchen area was better equipped with soap, paper towels, and dishes to use.
