Korean.. Paul Hwang's ... Work, Discovery ...Kinta Holiday,

This is Paul Hwang, a Korean on a holiday and a bit of volunteer work in Ipoh. 

Paul works with youth and had been in town this week but had not seen much of the countryside. 

So yours truly took off one morning to show him the sights of Ipoh and abit …… just a short quick tour of the surrounding towns. We started with breakfast before heading to Tambun. 

onward to buying a Pomelo....

....still in Tambun to get a glimpse of the Polo Club and the beautiful hills 

toward to Gunong Rapat and the big cave temple, Kek Lok Si 

the castle in the middle of nowhere, Kellies Castle ......

Now ...

and what it looked like then .....

William Kellie Smith then, the owner of Kellies Castle ........ 

and now ...... his photo hangs in this Indian temple not far from his Castle

next.... the last standing dredge in the country T.T.5 in Batu Gajah before....

heading for lunch at Tanjung Tualang....

...but first a cool fruit of coconut water ..... 

then savour the delight of Tanjung TokAlang, their monster size prawns

afterwards .....a palong tin mining operation ...... 

then to visit the state park, Kinta Nature Park ..... a bird sanctuary 

.

.... and to cap it all a cooling Chendol to end the tour at Lawan Kuda, Gopeng.

......."Now i can say i know Ipoh, hahah.. kamsahamnida" ...Paul Hwang.
