Parit in Perak

Parit is a small town in Perak Tengah. It is located west of Ipoh, between Ipoh and the coast. Parit is west of Pusing. It is not to be confused with Parit Buntar which is south of Penang.

The mighty Perak river flows through Parit, with the main town being on the east bank.

The shop houses are rather colourful, yellow is the predominant colour.

 

We had a drink in a coffee shop near the river

 

 The cash counter with bicycles parked in front

I love these old,  non air con buses -

A general store with a lot of biscuits

and another general hardware repair store with a tailors display

note the KLCC design on these yellow chairs

 

 

At the main crossroads is the clock tower - no longer working
