A Rendezvous with Colonial History at Kellie's Castle


Yesterday we went to a wedding kenduri (feast) in Batu Gajah, Perak. Just before reaching the venue, we spotted what looked like a 'tourist stop' along the way. Serendipity! It turned out to be Kellie's Castle, a must-see spot of history in the state of Perak.


A building of Moorish architecture, this castle, also deemed 'Kellie's folly' was abandoned when its owner died.


(In progress - will be more substantial about the research and writing later. Soon I hope!)
