Royal Ipoh Club, Ipoh, Perak Malaysia

Another colonial-era treasure, the Royal Ipoh Club's black and white mock-Tudor clubhouse was once frequented by British administrators, planters and tin miners. Here they watched the cricket, sipped their sundowners and nibbled their cucumber sandwiches on the verandah, happily epitomising the carefree colonial life. The building was constructed at the end of the 19th century and enjoys views across the Padang Field.
