Colourful Buildings To Brighten Up Ipoh City

Whenever I am seated in the passenger's seat, I have the chance to enjoy the view around me and also to notice any new things. At one time, most of the commercial buildings in Ipoh were painted white. Lately, while we were driving along Jalan Sultan Idris Shah (formerly Brewster Road) and Jalan Iskandar Shah (formerly Hugh Low Street) I noticed that there are many buildings painted in bright cheerful colours. I think the same is also happening elsewhere.  
#1 - Jalan Sultan Idris Shah (formerly Brewster Road)
 #2 - Jalan Horley
 #3 - Jalan Horley

The following pictures were taken at a supermarket.
 Thumb sucking Linus from Peanuts
 Saw this in front of a art/painting shop.
 Chinese New Year decoration
 A wooden "wheel" chair.
I like to drink hot cocoa.
Have been searching for Van Houten cocoa powder.
Finally found this packet at Aeon Big, Falim.


Search me, O God, and know my heart; test my thoughts.
Point out anything you find in me that makes you sad,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.
(Psalm 139:23-24, The Living Bible-TLB)

    I will look out for this Van Houten cocoa powder to make hot cocoa to drink to try it out since you like it.

    i love these vibrant colored buildings! We really need more of this, it helps to cheer up depression too. My favorite is the blue corner building with white trim. It is gorgeous, both colorful and artistic!
