Over a century ago, a notable tycoon presented this lane to one of his concubines. While it was once a hotspot for vice, it has now transformed into a vibrant area filled with popular Ipoh eateries, coffee shops, trendy cafes, and dessert houses. Street artists have revitalized the lane with murals that reflect its historical roots, creating great spots for photos. The lane can be quite busy on weekends, so consider visiting on weekday mornings for a quieter experience, though some stalls may be closed. Staying until evening offers a chance to see the lanterns illuminate the lane with a warm, red glow.
