 A 30-minute drive south of Ipoh towards Batu Gajah
will take you to the Kinta Kellas Rubber Estate. Amidst the lush greenery stands proud the
ruins of the never completed dream castle of William Kellie Smith, a
wealthy Scottish planter. Construction on this grand architecturally distinct castle which
began in 1915 came to an abrupt halt with the sudden death of its owner in 1926. An aura
of mystery envelopes this romantic yet melancholic mansion.
