Ipoh~ The Graceful City

I'm browse around and accidentally saw the above title "Ipoh.." Suddenly, I miss Ipoh so much.. I wish to go back even just for 1-2 days hanging around idling, doing nothing..

Ipoh, the city I born from..

Below the article from wikipedia..

Ipoh (pronounced /ˈiːpoʊ/) (4°60′N, 101°7′E) is a city in Malaysia and is the capital of the state of Perak. It is approximately 200 km (125 miles) north of Kuala Lumpur via the North-South Expressway.

Today, "Ipoh" usually refers to the territory under administration of Ipoh City Hall or Dewan Bandaraya Ipoh, which includes the smaller towns adjacent to the city such as Chemor, Jelapang, Falim, Menglembu and Tanjung Rambutan. Historically, "Ipoh" referred to the Old Town and New Town areas divided by the Kinta River at its heart, from which the city grew. From the late 1980s Greentown, located beside the New Town, was transformed from old government quarters to an administrative and commercial centre of Ipoh, often overshadowing both the Old Town and New Town.

Ipoh, I miss you..
