Ipoh City (state capital)
 Ipoh
City is the home to many a miner who has made a fortune during the heydays
of tin. Once a small kampung with dilapidated buildings, Ipoh, a town
that tin built, did not pass with the demise of the tin industry.

Gua Tempurung
 Believed
to have existed since 8000 BC, Gua Tempurung is probably the largest natural
limestone cave in Malaysia. Situated about 24km from Ipoh, the cave stretches
for 1.5km and is made up of five huge domes whose ceilings resemble coconut
shells. Each dome has different formations of stalagmites and stalactites
as well as differing temperatures, water level, content of limestone and
marble.
 Teluk
Intan Leaning Tower
Located 84km from Ipoh, this spectacular
leaning tower is the pride of Teluk Intan. Reminiscent of the Leaning
Tower of Pisa, this pagoda-like structure was built in 1885 by Leong Choon
Choong, a Chinese contractor. The dominating 25.5m tower was once used
for water storage
