When Syuen Hotel opened in 1993, it was the most luxury hotel in town. Although the shape & appearance of the building looked a little funny (some described it as a huge cage), its main entrance is built grand like a palace and Ipohites were amazed with this only 5-star rated hotel in Ipoh during that time. Over the years, I heard feedback of visitors from outstation or overseas, the hotel maintenance was not really up to par, indeed it is still one of the best choices of accommodation in the city. Added with the advantage of location at walking distance to Ipoh Parade Shopping Mall, famous restaurants at Greentown & city center, Syuen Hotel would be still a recommended hotel for staying in Ipoh. ...

Ipoh, the capital city of Perak State, Malaysia, is the city that tin built. Located at the famous tin mining area, Kinta Valley, it used to be the world's largest tin mine since 19th century. Not only of its tin mine, but Ipoh also famous of its delicious food, beautiful mountain ranges, mysterious lime stone caves, attractive history & friendly citizen. Being the second in Malaysia that gain the status of city in year 1988 after Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh is one of the major cities in Malaysia with the population around 700,000. Began as a small village in 1870's, tin mine industry had brought in Chinese and Indian that boosted the town development since 1890's. The rapid growing town later upgraded to be the capital of Perak during the Japanese occupation at World War II. The rich tin resource had brought prosperity to many Ipoh miners that even make it once known as the City of Millionaires. Today, Ipoh has grown to cover a large area including the neighboring township such as Bercham, Tasek, Jelapang, Menglembu, Pengkalan, Simpang Pulai & Chemor. The city is still developing continuously while maintains its beauty of nature and harmony.
We are living in a busy world. We often have no time to appreciate the moments in our daily life. Take a break, stop & look around. There are many beautiful things, although it is simple & humble. I learn to gain a better life by appreciation & would like to share the images in my world.
