Chinese Tea Leaves Shop - Wood Art Craft Museum, Ipoh

After our lunch at Restoran Kar Heng (in yesterday's post), we drove to Ipoh old town to visit a wood art craft museum at Lorong Bijeh Timah (facing the Jalan Sultan Iskandar bridge). If you are coming from Ipoh new town to the old town, you will be able to see it on your right hand side as you cross the bridge.

This is the first shop (corner) selling Chinese tea leaves. It is interconnected to the second shop which is the wood art craft shop.

On both sides of the tea shop are two water features with fishes in them.

Dried tea leaves on display at the entrance of the shop.

The names of the different types of tea leaves are all written in Mandarin.

Beautiful antique earthenware jars.

Linking to Friday Bliss & Skywatch Friday.

The lofty sun and moon began to fade,

obscured by brilliance from your arrows and

the flashing of your glittering spear.
