Colonial Treasures of British Presence
Built in 1877, it was the
residence of Sir Hugh Low, Perak's second Resident.
It was
built in Taiping due to the town's role at that era as the British
administrative center.
Later, it became the formal residence
of other successive Residents of Perak.
It also made Taiping
to be the first town to have a formal residence for a British
Resident. Presently, only the house posts mark the site of the
residence.
A rest house was built behind the historical site. |
