Night Market at People's Park Chang Jiang White Coffee

This was a Friday night. We had just finished our dinner with friends and were on our way home. Our friend took the road that pass by the People's Park in Ipoh old town. People's Park is usually dark in the night but that night I noticed that the place was lighted up. We were curious to find out what it was all about. Our friend parked the car a short distance away and we walked over to the People's Park.

Chang Jiang White Coffee at the People's Park.
I have been here twice in the day time before it's official opening.
Sorry about the poor quality of the photos because I was using my handphone camera.
The whole place was lit up with stalls spaced out here and there. 
According to one of the stalls owner, the night market is open only on weekends.
This night market is not very crowded probably because not many people know about it. We didn't buy anything because we just had our dinner.
This used to be a BBQ Lamb restaurant but now occupied by Chang Jiang White Coffee. Okay, let's go by the main entrance to take a look inside. 
A traditional Chinese marriage carriage or bridal sedan chair.
Display of a low wooden dining table with low wooden chairs.
An old fashioned hand powered water pump.
Barber chairs.
Rattan chair.
Rattan baby cot.
Main dining area.Customers can also choose to enjoy their food here if they want which is opposite the main dining area. That night, this place was not occupied.
An old fashioned weaving wooden loom.
Looks very completed to me.
I wonder if this type of weaving loom is still in use today.


Everyone enjoys giving good advice,
and how wonderful it is
to be able to say the right thing at the right time!
(Proverbs 15:23, The Living Bible-TLB)

  2. What a wonderful surprise! Oh, I love it all!
    So sad you just had something to eat. Interesting museum, too.
    Ha. Braunschweig is like that, too. AFTERWARDS you read about events being held and only few people came.
    Announce in time, huh?
    But you found it and it was not crowded, double-great.

  3. The Chang Jiang White Coffee People's Park appears to be a happening place. I have not been to a pasar malam in such a long time.

    1. Thank you, PH. I too have not been to the pasar malam for a long time. We didn't know this is something like a pasar malam. We saw the lights and we were curious to find out.

  4. Wowwwww!!! Such an interesting place! Nothing like People's Park in Singapore, just a shopping mall and hawker centre - nothing special. This is truly one of a kind!!!
