Stop At: Kellie's Castle, Batu Gajah Malaysia

After driver pickup a Traveler your journey will be starts by traveling in a MPV Car / Minivan (6 seater) on a Noth highway for about 2 hours before reach the Kellie's Castle. Located beside Sungai Raya in Perak, Kellie’s Castle is a huge unfinished mansion built by a Scottish rubber plantation owner named William Kellie-Smith.It was a gift for his wife and also to celebrate the birth of their son. Unfortunately, Kellie-Smith died of pneumonia at age 56 and the castle was never completed. Construction on the castle started in 1915 and ended in 1926 before it was finished.

His wife moved back to Scotland and the architectural wonder is a tourist attracton today, with some believing it to be haunted.

The building brings you back to a time and place in the past. You get to see where some scenes from Anna And The King (1999) and Skyline Cruisers (2000) were filmed in the mansion.

For history and architecture buffs, Kellie’s Castle is constructed in the British Indian Mughal-Gothic architectural style.

If you visit, you can explore the vast interior of the building – its rooms, wine cellar, elevator shaft and six-storey tower. Some of the rooms have been fitted with furniture so you get to see what they would have been like if the construction had been completed.

From the rooftop, you also get a lovely view of the surrounding gardens.
