What’s Happened to the Tambun Hot Springs


The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat, Tambun, Ipoh


This is an example of what else to do with caves, ...yeah, it ain’t all need to be temples.

The Tambun Hot Springs, used to be a popular outing for the kids of Ipoh, and cost next to nothing to enter. Some big company gave it a grand makeover and it’s now a spanking 5-star resort that’ll burn a hole in your wallet, ...err make that 5 holes, at least, just to enter! But of course, it looks a world of a difference now, compared to the ramshackle tin shack of a changing room, ...I don’t actually remember, it was ages ago! Too bad, we didn’t bother taking photos then, heck I was a kid then, what do we know about taking photos!
