About Concubine Lane (Lorong Panglima)

Concubine Lane is a short pedestrian alley of restored shophouses in Ipoh Old Town. Local tradition says wealthy tin miners once kept second wives here; today the lane holds souvenir shops, snack stalls, old-style cafes and a boutique hotel. It is the most visited street in the Old Town and the easiest place to start a heritage walk.

It is busiest at weekends and in the late morning, and most traders shut by late afternoon. Go early for photographs. Nearby Jalan Bandar Timah has kopitiam where you can try Ipoh white coffee.
