Yayyyy🥳 Taiping! My late grandparents humble abode! ❤️❣️ the tranquility, the FOOD, the people, the slow pace & the Waterfall!!!👏🏻🤸🏻♀️🏊🏼♀️ Unfortunately, due to the lockdown, haven't had the chance to return since 2019!!😥
Antong Coffee Mill looks awesome! Love how they use charcoal ovens to roast the coffee. Reminded us of when we went to the Kluang Coffee Factory in Johor.
Taiping is the most liveable place in Malaysia. If you had the opportunity to visit again, two other historic buildings you must visit are King Edward's and St George's schools.
Yeah, we had plans to see so much more of Malaysia after the first of the year, but the interstate travel ban changed those plans. Hopefully the Covid numbers in Malaysia will continue to improve and we can start exploring more of the country.
Taiping holds a special place in my heart as it is the hometown of my good friend! I am seriously considering retiring there as it is quiet , authentic and full of nature cum good food!
Next time if u visit Taiping again..U also can visit the nearest mountain 😊 Bukit Larut, formerly known as Maxwell Hill, is a popular highland destination in Malaysia. Located at an altitude of 1,250 m above sea level approximately 10 km from Taiping town in Perak; it is the wettest area in the country which experiences the highest rainfall. Bukit Larut is also home to the oldest hill station in Malaysia, built by William Edward Maxwell, a British Assistant Resident in Perak, in 1884 to provide a cool retreat for the colonial officials. In 1910, the hill resort was gazetted as a permanent forest reserve
@@africo9104 hi..I can't recommend u where can stay in Taiping. Bcos I from another city.but accommodation never a problem in Taiping.. Reasonable price..U can try search Taiping video on TH-cam.maybe u can found some other TH-camr accommodation suggestions
6:06 you are right. this is amazing disco tap good video as always. safe journey to both of you. I am guessing next destination is Teluk Intan, if you are still in Perak. Port Weld also has the oldest train station.
Glad you both get to enjoy my hometown. Next trip should visit the Maxwell Hill n stay at the Nest bungalow . Where r u in the States? We r here since 79, established in Maryland. Maybe n hopefully to meet up when we r back, can be your personal tour guide. Keep traveling n enjoy, laugh n live.
I lived and worked in Perak in 2010. Don't miss visiting Batu Gajah , a former tin mining town w lots of old colonial buildings. Have an iced tea at the Kinta Golf Club n say hi to Raj!
I love following your adventures! The sunrises from Ipoh in your last video made me particularly nostalgic. If you have to be stuck in one state I’m glad it’s Perak! Of course, I’m biased after living in Kuala Kangsar tho! Can’t wait to see where y’all go next!
Thanks AJ. And thanks for sharing your experiences in Malaysia with us, it's been so helpful. We went out for roti canai yesterday morning and it made me remember the all the advice you gave us about food, places to go, etc. We never would have guessed we would be in Malaysia for over a year, but wouldn't have wanted to spend this past year anywhere else.
There's dolphin watching at Kuala Sepetang, I think you missed it (and oh, in Ipoh, on the outskirts, there's lovey dovey Banjaran, spa on the hills for you loving birds)
Yes, this is also why we are still in Perak. We want to visit other parts of Malaysia but can't right now. I hope the Covid situation continues to improve here in Malaysia.
Welcome to Taiping, i hope you two enjoyed your stay here. As a local from big city, i loved the environment at Taiping. Taiping is best know for it's peace and greenery.
Taiping is a small town in Perak state. Primary and secondary education in Taiping are provided by national-type schools, Chinese-medium schools and Tamil-medium schools.
I went to this orang utan island many years ago, and i got to see 2 orang utan babies wearing diapers, in cribs and the staff there were feeding them milk from milk bottles...just like human babies!...i still can remember the image until now, just like it was yesterday!..it was one of the coolest thing i’ve ever seen in my life!..
Great video! Can't wait to move to Malaysia when the borders open. When a fellow American likes a food I'll probably like it too. Btw, no snail ratings anymore? :-)
Hi Snail Travelers, If one had to work in Taiping, where would you suggest that one would live? Ipoh, Taiping or Penang, bearing mind commuting times, amenities, and weather ? Couple only...
Very nice and interesting videos as always. Where would you both be heading to next? I dare bet with my life that it’s anywhere except Cameron Highlands. Most probably would be Pangkor Island. Plenty of hornbills there.

It is located about 48 km (30 mi) northwest of Ipoh, the capital of Perak, and 78 km (48 mi) southeast of George Town, Penang, With a population of 245,182 (in 2013) .

Love Taiping. One of my favourite places in Malaysia. For more hornbills go to Pulau Pangkor, there are so many there.
Yes but the hornbills there are racists. Remember?
Thanks! Taiping has been one of our favorites too.
@@calvink28 😀😀 that's true, that's true... still worth it though...

I always love watching people on TH-cam who are current or former teachers because the way you explain and describe things are very good. 👍
Ohhh those pisang goreng look great! Can see why you were hooked
any pisang goreng in thailand? :D

Thank you for this info. We do hope to visit Taiping again, and we do enjoy historical buildings, so thanks for the suggestions.
👏🏻👏🏻 😃 my grandpa used to study in King Edward's! 🤴🏻🕺
Ahhh we missed out on Taiping! We planned on going after New Years until MCO 2.0 hit. The Lake Gardens are so nice and lush.
Yeah, we had plans to see so much more of Malaysia after the first of the year, but the interstate travel ban changed those plans. Hopefully the Covid numbers in Malaysia will continue to improve and we can start exploring more of the country.
Thanks for your sharing about my beautiful country.
Thanks for sharing. Taiping will be my next travel destination. I like the lake garden also.
Sounds great! Thank you!

Yes absolutely. We spent only one week in Taiping and realize that was not enough time. We are already hoping to go back again.
Next time if u visit Taiping again..U also can visit the nearest mountain 😊

You should go to Maxwell Hill while at Taiping. There are some chalets there for travellers. Beautiful tourist destination in Taiping.

Taiping is the home of my late father. I toured it through you guys.
Awesome! Taiping is one of my favourite outing site with family

Have you tried the soya bean near & the cendol there ?
They are superb.
Also the fried keow teow with salted fish.

Have not been able to visit with friends to taiping yet cos of d inter state travel restrictions
Yes, this is also why we are still in Perak. We want to visit other parts of Malaysia but can't right now. I hope the Covid situation continues to improve here in Malaysia.
@@snailtravelers
Yeah....don't we all wish for that travel freedom to come.....asap!
I like your shots and your storyline. Interesting video. Thanks.
Thank you very much for your kind words.
I WANT a disco tap!!!
Welcome to Taiping, i hope you two enjoyed your stay here. As a local from big city, i loved the environment at Taiping. Taiping is best know for it's peace and greenery.
Im so missing to taiping Perak..i went there late last year for 1 week.. I like the food there.. Sedap dan murah.. From k. Kinabalu.. 😇 👍❤️💯
Those banana fritters did look tasty. I think "Disco Faucet" should be the name of my new punk band.
Taiping is a small town in Perak state. Primary and secondary education in Taiping are provided by national-type schools, Chinese-medium schools and Tamil-medium schools.
I went to this orang utan island many years ago, and i got to see 2 orang utan babies wearing diapers, in cribs and the staff there were feeding them milk from milk bottles...just like human babies!...i still can remember the image until now, just like it was yesterday!..it was one of the coolest thing i’ve ever seen in my life!..
Wow, what a wonderful experience. We saw the nursery for baby orangutans but there were no babies when we went there.
@@snailtravelers , yes, it was a rare experience...i hope you will be able to experience it in the future.
Great video! Can't wait to move to Malaysia when the borders open. When a fellow American likes a food I'll probably like it too. Btw, no snail ratings anymore? :-)
Thanks! You mention that you are planning to move to Malaysia, and I'm planning to make a few videos about that in the next few months. Stay tuned!
another great video from u guys, i really enjoy it...thank you
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
wow, your video is good
Zoo Taiping is one of my favorite and I think it’s even surpassed National Zoo here. I highly recommend visiting it during the day.
Yes indeed! We loved the zoo, but hope to visit it during the day next time we go back. Thanks for watching!
glad to have u guys in my hometown
Hi Snail Travelers, If one had to work in Taiping, where would you suggest that one would live? Ipoh, Taiping or Penang, bearing mind commuting times, amenities, and weather ? Couple only...
Disco faucet! 😂
Can only imagine how good the banana fritters were, when describe it you almost ran out of adjectives.
The disco faucet was so funny LOL. The orang utan was cute. Now I don't have to go all the way to Sabah to see bigger ones. 😉
Should start thinking of touring Sabah soon as the covid cases are down now.
We would love to visit Sabah. Thanks for the suggestion!
Very nice and interesting videos as always. Where would you both be heading to next? I dare bet with my life that it’s anywhere except Cameron Highlands. Most probably would be Pangkor Island. Plenty of hornbills there.
Thanks for watching! We're planning to stay in Perak for awhile and plan to have a new video soon!
You had a good cheap stay in perak.. Please come again..
Thank you!
I'm from ipoh.. Perak
I like making friends in my home town.. Hope to see you again
D fried fritters looked delicious.
Beautiful and peaceful
Many thanks

Which is your favorite country
Malaysia, absolutely. We plan to make a video about why Malaysia is our favorite country soon!
Your pronounciation of Perak is wrong. It is pe (pronounced ‘pear’) -rak.
