Kellie's Castle

“Very nice place to visit if you are near at Ipoh. Parking is available but needs to pay 5MYR. Kellie’s Castle is quite stunning and really good to get some photos of it. Also have horse to ride on but unfortunately I think it only open for weekends. Some people say that the place very haunted but not really, but sometimes feels eerie but okay - need goes there to feel the vibe there. Staff there was friendly and also ticket need on kiosk and it a good the we doesn’t need to carry a physical ticket to go inside the castle. It is worth it? For first time, yes. But for second time, better for photo shoots only. To appreciate the structure building, it worth to take picture. Overall it best to visit once for lifetime.”

“1. Interesting when you read about the history of the place a little, beforehand 2. Convenient to book ticket ONLINE on their site, in advance: RM 9 per head. The que can be quite long here 3. Parking lot; site A & site RM 5 Note: do not lean on the wired boundary cable, yes some people do that; bloody risky... 4. Go behind castle, sit in que for guided tram ride #FYI - the ticket is VALID for a whole day (operating hours lah) & its multiple entry hence after day visit you can go out, jln jln then return for evening/night view too 😊 👍! (Be safe, buy online ticket so got digital copy)”

“Kellie’s Castle is a place you should definitely visit when you’re in Ipoh. The architecture is very beautiful and unique, and it’s an excellent spot for photography with a cinematic, vintage vibe. However, one important thing to note is that the castle is quite far from the city center. If you’re traveling without a car, it can be difficult to get a ride back, so make sure to plan your transportation in advance. Overall, it’s a stunning and photogenic location. If you enjoy taking photos and exploring historical architecture, this place is absolutely worth the visit.”

“Kellie’s Castle is definitely one of the must visit historical sites in Malaysia. Parking costs RM5, but there’s a convenient OKU parking spot nearby, and the pathway leading to the ticketing area is OKU friendly. Unfortunately, the route up to the castle itself doesn’t have a wheelchair or stroller pathway, only stairs, so we stayed below and took photos from there. The staff were incredibly kind and allowed us to walk past the bridge towards the castle, which made the experience even better. Even though it was raining, the view was still beautiful. They also have good coffee available, and there were buskers playing lovely music, adding to the atmosphere. Overall, I really enjoyed my visit here.”
