For Ipohites and visitors, Tin Alley @ Old Town in Ipoh is a must-visit location to learn more about the history of tin mining.
Ipoh was once the main city of mining and that economy had changed the landscape of the city.
In the past, the Kinta Valley was developing rapidly and was the richest district in the Malay Peninsula as a result of tin mining activities.
This made Ipoh more renowned compared to cities in other states as it is rich with tin.
Tin Alley is a creative hub which preserves and promotes the heritage, culture and arts of Ipoh.
The aesthetic space with a vintage concept makes the perfect photography or selfie spot.
Visitors will be able to experience the nostalgia of life back in the 19th century.
Tin Alley is located at Number 3, Lorong Bijeh Timah, Ipoh. It opens every day except Monday, from 10am till 6pm.
