Heritage House Muzeum Gopeng
The moment one steps inside the Heritage House Muzium Gopeng, a visitor would be able to recapture the simple yet dazzling lives of the people of Gopeng some 125 years ago through the numerous antiquities, antiques, old furniture and calligraphy paintings on display.
Wang Kun-xiang, the financial controller of the Heritage House, has a special preference for antique collection and has desired to establish a nostalgic house that would show the modern residents the bustling life, culture and customs of people living in the town more than a century ago.
On the ground floor, there is a barber shop, kopitiam and a feng shui air well filled with bonsai trees and relics from the near past. Up above, living areas have been decorated and filled with priceless decorations and furnishings that accurately reflect what life would have been like for a middle-class family at the turn of the 20th century in Gopeng, and indeed the surrounding areas.
Kong Heng Square
One of these must check-out spots, a favourite hangout of youngsters, is Kong Heng Square. The term ‘old is gold’ never seemed more apt, as the cluster of restaurants, vintage stores and hip cafes are surrounded by giant trees with vines, buildings faded with age and overhung by carpets of ivy but revamped on the inside.
Concubine Lane
People will be able to walk freely and encourage more people to visit the area to enjoy the culinary delights and other attractions. Concubine Lane might be the next major tourist attraction in the Ipoh city.
