Ipoh, is quite a famous place in Malaysia. It's the place where my girlfriend from. Hollywood star Michelle Yeoh is originate from Ipoh. And it famous to bring up pretty girls / ladies in Malaysia, :) So is my dear pretty? You have to say "Yes!", okay??? Hahaa....
It's pretty excited to meet her parents, as she has told me that her parents is funny, and fun to talk with, but I always have an attitude to talk with elderly people, I do respect them, but I just can't make fun at all, I can be very crazy at a time, but I need some times to get rid of it, somehow... I have to give good impression to them else her parents is going to sweep me away using a broom, ya?
There are some nice famous foods, Bean Sprouts with Chicken (芽菜鸡), noodle serves with shredded chicken meat and prawns (沙河粉), white coffee (白咖啡), DimSum (点心) and others, all of these are yum-yum! She brings me for Bean Sprouts with Chicken, the chicken meat is smooth and nice, noodle is nice too, pretty smooth and delicious. Since she is back to her home, we don't really eat much at outside, and her mum is good in cooking, of cause eating at home is much more cleaner and healthier, right? Her mum has prepared a lot of nice foods, beside the regular meals, we have rambutan, mangoteen, durian! These fruits are going to kill me, and I hope that I'm not getting sick after all these heaty fruits.
Wao! Can you imagine? My life is so healthy when I stay in Ipoh. There are not much entertainments as compare to the life in Kuala Lumpur, I will sleep early at around 11pm, and I have no worry at all, not working anyway :), and I wake up at around 8am, read newspaper, take regular meals on time, watch television programs, and I have no need to spend money at all. Nevertheless, when you are staying in Kuala Lumpur, well said, you are not going to spend money, BUT at least you have to pay toll for all the express ways that you are going to use, and you don't have choice.
Ipoh has many limestone caves due to the karstic formation around it, as I have visited to numbers of them in the past, like San Bao Dong (三保洞), Nan Tian Dong (南天洞), Ling Xian Yan (灵仙岩), Perak Cave - Pi-Li Dong (霹雳洞). We visit to Ji Le Dong (极乐洞) that I've never been before. It's cooling inside the cave. As we walk through the cave, there is another nice scenery.

Just before the main entrance.

Inside the cave.

This is the scenery after the main entrance, through the cave. A lot of people will come here for jogging, exercises in the evening.

Ouch! This is pretty painful, to walk on stepping stones...

Yea... Ipoh "produces" pretty women...
