Ipoh +
Ipoh is the capital city of the Malaysian state of Perak. Located by the Kinta River, it is nearly 200 km north of Kuala Lumpur and 150 km southeast of George Town in neighbouring Penang. In recent years, Ipoh's popularity as an international tourist destination has been significantly boosted by efforts to conserve its British colonial-era architecture. The city is also well known for its cuisine and natural attractions, such as its limestone hills and caves within which Buddhist temples were built.
