Dredge Visit.. (o.O) _Perak

This will be my last post for my Ipoh Perak trip.. ^_^..

I actually tot that we are heading home already after Kellie's Castle.. But hubby select 1 location on the GPS place of interest list...



He himself don't know what was that.. but the name looks interesting.. '...Heritage'.. Me ikut saja... sudah nama dia 1 kereta kan... -_-

Once we reached.. Nah kau... what we get here... Lombong Tin (???)




Seems we already here.. Just go for it.. kena bayar lagi tu... RM5... -_-




This is the ingredients to make cans and branded watches you know...




Some of the tools..




This dredge was no longer operating.. so they let people come and visit..








We have to go without any guide.. -_-.. Ni yang gayat ni.. have to cross this little bridge..




Siap pakai heels... ~.@ .. Hubby and son siap goyang2 the bridge... urghhhh... ada yang kena flying kick ni...




When I was here.. 1 thing in my mind... 'Ohh.. This is how they work.. Must be difficult..'




Smells of Tar..




Well at least I have new knowledge today.. about a dredge.. ow man.. I even step inside (With heels ;-p)!! LOL..




Half of the dredge was filled with water..




We did not explore too deep inside.. Might be dangerous for our little one.. or may be us..








This will be the things to carry out all the 'tins dust'..

Very narrow stair case..




Door after door...after door.. o.O








Going up..




I think this will be the library..




The painting job completed..




But not on this side.. Half way done..








This supposed to be for their daughter's room..




With a floral decoration.. half way paint too..








This 1 was on the roof side..




Holding on... gayat... ~.@








This Castle already tall.. But according to the story the owner actually planned to make it higher.. Unfortunately the building remain uncompleted..








The lucky Agnes.. This castle was supposed to be for her.. but she refused to stay..




The owner face.. Mr William Kellie Smith..




Lastly.. The great grand son of the Castle ex-owner... He visited the castle on 2007..

Kellie's Castle_Ipoh Perak (P.1)

When I was in Ipoh.. managed to have a visit to Kellies Castle.. (Guided by GPS.. ^_^).

The uncompleted Castle is all about a man trying to build a castle to his lovely wife but wife refused to stay due to the location that time, all covered with jungles.. More about Kellie's Castle history click HERE.




Entrance fees..




It was drizzling for a while that moment.. but we managed to go round the castle.. crossing a river to get to the Castle..




Pass thru a bridge of coz.. ^_^




This place was 1 of the photographers fav place to capture photos.. even for brides photos..








It was quite huge..








Nice corridor.. 1 thing when I walk alone around this castle.. My body felt like very warm.. I am not scared but.. you know a little bit creepy.. ^_^




Apa lagi sudah baca ni... fuh-yoo.. I will scold my hubby and son if leave me behind.. ;-p




Cari orang tengah posing... ;-p .. can you spot??




















The previous owner really loves the mosque design..








All the bricks was remain this way..








This must be a beautiful castle if its completed..
