Two historical, memorable Ipoh streets ...

Recently, I was back to Ipoh. I took some pictures of the streets with which I grew up in the 1960s and 1970s. Above is Jalan Laxamana and the building was constructed in early 1930s by a very well-known tin-miner Foong Siong. On the left is the equally memorable Market Street in the Old Town where the shop lot of Modern Photo Studio, whose name is still clearly printed in a photograph of my grandmother taken in 1930s, is located.

I love your blogging style. I added it to my preferred blog web page list and will return soon… Citizens of the United States of America need a visa to travel to India. US citizens can apply online for an Indian 30 days tourist eVisa from USA. And then you can travel in India.
