Getaway @ Kampar-Ipoh - Part 1

For two years I have been talking about this trip, and finally making it happen, before my bestie leaves the place :P

And perhaps, one of the most fruitful photography trip I have had so far :)
And my first model, awesome and potential one!! X)

From the new bus terminal that Snowbell picked me up, we headed for a late breakfast at Ipoh Old Town.

 Snowbell with friend, Brian

We then headed for Perak Cave Temple, one of the many cave temples in Ipoh, that I have never been to before.

A nice smile from the model :)


Up is not the only way to go. Sometimes you may stay lower for a better view.

A nice rock calligraphy

The scenery up there may be out of expectations. But you may take a look from a different point of view. It's worth the climbing.


Deep in the heart

Offering of light, incense and flower to the Triple Gem

Stay tuned for the second part!

Yet amazed again by some wandering flock of geese

Hi. I'm a goose.
