Old Kamparese shops

Tourists can come to stay in Kampar, although is not a typical place on top of the tourism list but there are quite many hotels in town, many old architectures, some are beautiful, you can enjoy the old town ambience and probably some historical unheard things yet to be discovered, you can be the first. Look at the top main photo, look at the Chinese words, below is Hindu words and I saw many Indian peoples sitting inside the church, they, probably were those already been converted earlier, hence they come to pray.

I did not go to visit the UTAR, the University for all Malaysians, finally. It was completed in 2003 if not mistaken, and after that Kampar became anew while you can see more shops more peoples appeared in this old town, like a revived town now. If you want to invest, come here.

Sometimes the places tourists don't frequent are the best places to go.
