Ipoh Railway Station / Majestic Station Hotel

Ipoh railway station is a nice place for photographs for the architecture of the heritage building. According to the information I searched online, the construction begun in year 1914 and was completed in 1917. This impressive landmark is known as "Taj Mahal of Ipoh" by the locals. There is a hotel, named Station Hotel, above the station, on the second and third floors. Here are the photos:
