Heritage Walk at Concubine Lane Ipoh 📍

#hiddengems I spent my weekend went to the famous Concubine Lane located at the centre of Ipoh. Many viral stalls that sells foods & antics here. The lane existed since 1908, where this area were famous for its gambling, prostitution owned by tycoons miners around Ipoh. But now, this lane are converted into shops and cafes that offers variety of tasty food and drinks. The architecture and building were remained as before to preserved the heritage value of this place. I love it here, will come back to try many food! 📍Concubine Lane Lorong Panglima Ipoh, Perak

The Famous Concubine Lane✨🌸

If you visiting Ipoh, you must visit the most famous Concubine Lane. Concubine Lane or also known as Larong Paglima is now a cornucopia of coffee shops, souvenir stalls, restaurants and gift shops. This place was formerly reputed for being a quaint old corner in the city. Concubine Lane is divided into two distinct sections, each offering a unique glimpse into Ipoh's rich heritage. Don’t forget to bring your camera coz this place is so colorful, vintage, and instagrammable! PS: most of all the shops here are open at 10AM and closed at 5PM. #ipoh #malaysia #flowerlover #vintage #cherryblossom2024

Kopi Panglima

#malaysia #ipoh #cafe to visit in Concubine Lane. The aunty outside will be calling us to enter. It's a nice place to chill after tiring legs if you are walking around the city. Located at the end corner of concubine lane: 24 Concubine Ln; I found this place bring the vibe of kampong spirit, with its tingkat and sarong decor plus the bricks and stairs. Tried their Kopi tiga negara which is super refreshing, rice noodle curry, mushroom chicken bao, prawn siew mai, and seaweed chicken for the price of RM 53.6; Curry is rich of flavour while the dimsum is not that good. Recommend you to just skip the dimsum and try the local food and kopi here! 😋

Old Town with Aesthetic Vibes♥️

#wheretogo Address: 📍 Lorong Panglima, Concubine Lane, 30000, Ipoh, Perak. This place probably one of the most beautiful place I’ve ever been. I like the design of the building around this area. Feels like living in the 80’s era. Love how this place represents the sentimental value. It is open daily from 7am to 7pm including Public Holiday. There were hip cafes around this area. What I can say is, a lot of hip cafe!😅 Please choose which ever you’re interested with. There also stores and a lot of interesting shop. How to get there: 1. By car If you’re planning to drive, that’s the best option! Traffic is not that heavy which navigating around is easy. 2. By Grab Also a good idea and most preferred option. The price is reasonable and affordable. No hassles too. But, make sure to download the apps first, state your destination and the driver will be assigned to you. Easy😊 Tip: For an exciting time, I recommend you to have a visit during peak season (weekends or public holidays), because there would be so much more to see and of course will be crowded with tourists and local people. Rating (Out of 5) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

butter-beer in a harry potter themed cafe

📍Platform 1/2 this cafe is located at the concubine lane, ipoh. it is less than 15mins walk from KTM Ipoh. they serves butter-beer (non-alcoholic) which i believe one of the top wishlist of most potterheads. it tastes ok, however not as good as the ones in USJ huhu the donut is sooo fluffy i love it! muffin and waffle taste average. most importantly is the decoration, the vibes! highly recommended for potterheads~ #mytripvlog #foodie #awesomepic #harrypotter #potterhead

A short alley packed with souvenir shops

#shopandtrip A great place to visit when you are in Ipoh. A lot of stall selling souvenirs and viral foods. Really recommended to those wanna try the hype of viral food. Expect to blend in the crowdedness especially during weekend/public holiday. It’s a very short lane. The foods were excellent and most of the shops sells expensive souvenirs. Most of shops use QR pay which was convenient for us to pay. No need to bring a lot of cash! Just top up your touch n go and boost or MAE. Easy peasy!

Concubine lane, Ipoh, Perak

Acting like a tourist and end up being approach by a Chinese lady for a picture is the cutest experience! Concubine lane has so much to offer- street foods, cafes, souvenir shops, restaurants, and even hotel! I managed to buy a cute cap, hairclips, desserts- cotton candy and raindrops cake! And if you wonder why this place is famous, is due to the history of a tin mining tycoon, who placed his mistress at a house to live in. Overall, this is a must visit attraction in Ipoh. #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure #awesomepic #tripblazers #ipoh

Market Lane

#celebratewithtrip Market Lane in the old is called Second Concubine Lane, a gift from Mr Yao Tet Shin to his 3rd wife, to collect rental from the shophouses. All the three lanes are within Ipoh old town and nearby to each others, there are not many shops along this lane, visitors come here for the murals on the walls. These creative art pieces that will light up your Instagram feed. A coffee scene, a group of kids jumping, a 3D mural created by Ernest Zacharevic, with half a real-life tricycle as part of the mural.

On weekends, all shops will open, the lane will also be full of people, both locals and tourists.

Ipoh Concubine Lane

Recommended to visit Concubine Lane the most famous street in all of Ipoh ,historic lane local people selling their own goods.

Nice heritage walk down Concubine Lane at Ipoh. I was skeptical to taste the butter beer at first cos it’s not cheap, but the taste is one of a kind!

CONCUBINE LANE,

#SpooktacularTrip A heritage place. You can find souvenirs and street snacks everywhere. This lane will also link you to the best nearby eateries in town. Be adventurous to walk around. Parking is a problem. I prefer to take grab and drop off. The place is full of people and its impossible to maintain safe distancing from one another. Do mask up at all times. Enjoyed looking around at this old style part of Malaysia, was very crowded but still a good place to visit. Some interesting shops and of course street art. Local musicians playing in the street was also an added touch. The Harry Potter cafe is impressive, they sure did a lot to make it feel surreal. #ipoh #concubinelane #urbanexplorer #harrypotter #planb#foodie#cafe#awesomepic#MyTripVlog #SpooktacularTrip #bucketlistreboot #tripblazers

#shoppingatmalaysia #lifepostcovid #lifegoeson #retailtherapy #crowds #chillandwalk #vintageshopping If you are someone who loves a place with strong heritage and history, do check out the Concubine Lane when you are at Ipoh. Built back to the days of 1908, this lane is still well preserved and busking with activity. Here, you will find many stalls set up selling a variety of items such as accessories and clothes, and even food. Would be good to spend 30 mins to an hour here minimally. It was good to see it crowded after covid surfaced, do check out this place and support the local business here. Address Concubine Lane Ipoh 30000 Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia

Old School and Vintage Style Street

Here for our short trip. The Concubine Lane. Famously located in Ipoh, Perak, whenever you come to Ipoh, you got to drop by here and reminiscing yourself through your childhood. There are a few eateries you can find here. We went to a vintage style cafe called Laksa-Mana with P Ramlee vibes, make sure you try their Tuna Croissant and super fluffy Bahulu cake, probably the best in town! Along the street, you’ll find a lot of stalls selling cute and beautiful merchandise with reasonable price. But what’s famous is of course their street snacks like the Raindrop Jelly Cake, Cheesy Rainbow Sandwich and lots of coffee to offer. There are a lot of instagrammable spots as well and if you come here during weekend, you’ll probably need to take turn to get your pictures snapped. Overall, it was worth coming here if you enjoy the fun indulging yourself in a vintage style street and to try yourself all the famous street snacks here. Will come here again for sure!#deliciousfood #foodie #cafe

Such a great place to enjoy the nostalgic evening with local delicious food and souvenirs to bring back home. Many classic coffee shops nearby. #ipoh #concubinelane
