Kellie's Castle
About 30 minutes drive from Ipoh, near Batu Gajah, stands the ruins of Kellie's
Castle. It belonged to William Kellie Smith, an English rubber tycoon during the
late 19th century. The castle was never completed as Smith left for Scotland in
the midst of its construction, and never returned.
Shrouded in dark mystery, it is believed that Kellie's Castle has
hidden rooms and a secret tunnel. The road which leads to the Castle
follows the contours of the land in dizzying, maze-like fashion,
adding to the mystery and romance of the place.
