Ipoh Old Town Adventures

16th April 2018, a day after my birthday. I decided to go around Old Town to see the murals and the old historical buildings as part of my job assignment since I was transferred to the Ipoh Tourism Dept two weeks before. Hubby tagged along as my security guardian and chauffer. These are some of the pics I took:
