A Visit to 22 Hale Street is a must.
Nestled in Ipoh’s historical enclave, this place is beautifully decorated and is utterly nostalgic. Check out the products in the gift shop and gift yourself exclusive merchandise and publications. Also, on display are creative products and crafts by local creatives and social enterprises that 22 Hale Street supports. Have a coffee at the café downstairs, while upstairs in the galleries you can find vintage items and modern art.
The heritage gallery here, displays the lifestyle of Ipoh residents over time and has gorgeous arrangements of antiques and photographs, showcasing the city’s past. The museum is open to visitors for a small fee, but it can also be visited for free, depending on the exhibition held. Audio tours are RM10 and Guided Tours cost RM20. Opens from 10am to 6pm daily.
