A Wedding Reception @ Galasa Event Centre

 
Attended a very memorable wedding reception at Galasa Event Centre at Jalan Cadwell. 

A lovely couple with very happy parents and smiling faces all around.  A great wedding ceremony and an excellent venue for the occasion.


And remember, never to forget a selfie with friends. 

The main entrance. To the right is the main event hall.  On the left, a smaller pavilion with a fountain pool in front.  



Ipoh is fast becoming a happening city!

More than an ordinary Canteen

 



This is a must visit eatery at Jalan Sultan Idris Shah (Brewster Road) just before the Police Station.  The place is called "aSow gallery CANTEEN".   The word "canteen" means a small cafeteria or snack bar.  What makes this gallery different is the picturesque plants that are displayed rather than photos or paintings. 

Look at these lovely plants hanging from the top and growing from the bottom, and even from the walls.  The potted plants are irrigated by a myriad of tiny plastic water pipes. 







The beverage cum pay counter is indeed unique.  It is very simply constructed with ventilation brick blocks. 





What fascinates me most are these terrariums.  Lovely as they stand, especially this huge construct in the middle.  Some small pieces are for sale.  





And now a sample of great food we had for dinner.




Simply delicious.

Art and Photo Exhibition @ 22 Hale Street










Great artwork on display at 22 Hale Street Heritage Museum for the week.  Many water colour paintings are from members of the Urban Sketcher group.  

There are also photos of birds and landscapes.  

Very interesting photos are presented by the Karst group from the Kinta Valley.  The magnificent limestone caves and underground water canals are more remarkable.  These wonders of nature need to be preserved.  Most disturbing to hear that some mining companies are blasting the limestone hills nearby.
