The Majestic Station Hotel Ipoh

It was once a small "kampung" (village) with dilapidated buildings, that has grown to become one of the largest cities in Malaysia. A local landmark is the Railway Station, which bears a close resemblance to the one in Kuala Lumpur. To the locals, its the "Taj Mahal". This impressive landmark combines Moorish architecture with modern embellishments and it surrounded by a magnificent garden.
Built in the mid 1800's She has stood against the test of time, elements and the changing faces of the city. Today she stands majestically in the heart of town, looking at her growing and bustling "CHILDREN" as the city spreads itself out.
