Wall Paintings & Antique Door At Ho Yan Hor Museum, Ipoh.

Today's posting will be the last of the series on Ho Yan Hor museum. After having finished the 1st floor tour (click here to read), we came down by another steep stairway down to the front hall. The stairway was very steep that I have to hold on tight to the railing and took one step at a time all the way down.
 Wall painting of customers enjoying the herbal tea.
Take a look at the wall painting and pay attention to the black table and chair.

Here is a close up of the table and chair. Did you notice something about the table and chair. They have only 2 front legs each.

 Visitors buying gift packs of herbal tea. 
 My friends listening to the briefing by the lady in blue blouse.
 Keeping cool with Hor Yan Hor.
Symptoms of heatiness:
a) Sleep difficulty, waking up too early, feeling tired.
b) Feverish & irritable - mouth ulcers, sore throat, constipation.
c) Cold & Flu - fever, runny nose, headache.
 Only gift packs are being sold here.

We have come to the end of our visit to Ho Yan Hor museum.

We know how happy they are now because they stayed true
to him then, even though they suffered greatly for it.
Job is an example of a man who continued to trust
the Lord in sorrow; from his experiences we can see
how the Lord's plan finally ended in good,
for he is full of tenderness and mercy.
(James 5:11, The Living Bible-TLB)
Found this wall mural a short distance away from Ho Yan Hor museum.

    1. You can go up but maybe you will have to sit down on the steps and slowly move down step by step...haha. That's what happens to some of the older visitors. Ha ha I almost did that!

  20. Malaysia is the only place I've seen such a use of wall murals. I've seen them pop up since in Singapore, but Malaysia did it first.

    1. I almost buy the gift packs but I was worried I will take a long time to drink. I came back and later bought a small packet of the green box from the medical shop in my area.
