THEY say that the most beautiful women in Malaysia are from Ipoh, pointing to beauties like actresses Tan Sri Michelle Yeoh and Carmen Soo. Some say it’s due to Kinta Valley’s clean air and fresh water, though that’s still up for debate.

But what brooks no argument is that the best hor fun, or flat rice noodles, are from Ipoh. And everyone concurs that’s definitely due to the fresh spring water from the mountains which is used to make the noodles.
