We finalized few places must take photographs in perak. The theme of these places is culture, you must keep these memories in photograph!

Concubine Lane is one of the attraction in Ipoh, it has over 100 years history. The name of the lane sound weird, but there is actually a history behind this. Long time ago, this lane was a place of vice activity, few years later, it became a residential area for Chinese men kept their mistresses or concubines.
