Kuala Kangsar, Royal Town of Perak

Went to some attractions in town during my lunch break. That includes Istana Kenangan Bukit Chandan (old palace), the Official Palace, and Galeri Sultan Azlan Shah (the new museum in town). It was definitely worth the time as the tour took me on a showcase of Perak's past and present.

Best of all, they are all free!!! (err... apparently now there's a charge going into the Galeri. But it's still worth it)
