Having arrived at Ipoh, the first thing we noticed was the very Chinese-influenced architecture of the buildings and the relatively Chinese-dominated nature of the area.
The locals walking about in this area (most of whom were enjoying their lunch at this time as it was already around 1.00 pm) consisted of a majority of Chinese, although there were a few Malays and Indians we spotted as well.
The other thing we noticed about the area were the beautiful murals and street art scattered around the city. Very much locally inspired, the street art and murals seemed to tell the tale of Ipoh in a way that captured the essence of the creative and artistically-inclined nature of the people.
