Perak Museum, Taiping

February 17th 2010

It's our third day in Taiping and thus after our breakfast, we decided to go up to the Maxwell Hill. It was half past eight in the morning when we departed from my parent's house heading for the cooling air of Maxwell Hill.

Along our way to the Taiping Lake Garden and then to Maxwell Hill, we stumbled upon the old and worn out railway coach.
Finally, we were so happy for reaching the foot of Maxwell Hill and went straight to the ticketing counter. But Sun don't shine forever because all the tickets up to the Maxwell Hill were sold out as early as half past seven in the morning. Early birds catches the worms.
Left no choice but only to snap photo as remembrance.
The Maxwell Hill was founded in 1870. A British resident assistant in Perak,George Maxwell build their vacation houses on the hill.

Only half of the Museum were open for viewing because half of the museum were under renovation. The museum is free of charge with no entrance fees.
