Distinguished neo-classical structure completed in 1928. Designed by British architect Arthur Benison Hubback, renowned for his contributions to Malayan architecture, the building features grand columns and symmetrical facades that reflect the city's historical significance during the British colonial era.
Situated along Jalan Panglima Bukit Gantang Wahab, the High Court is a prominent landmark on the Ipoh Heritage Trail. Its strategic location places it amidst a cluster of colonial-era buildings, including the Ipoh Town Hall and the Ipoh Railway Station, both also designed by Hubback. This proximity offers visitors a cohesive experience of early 20th-century British colonial architecture.
While the interior of the High Court is not accessible to the general public, its exterior provides ample opportunity for photography and appreciation of its architectural details. The building's white facade and classical design elements make it a favored subject for those interested in historical architecture.
For those interested in exploring Ipoh's rich history and architecture, the Ipoh High Court serves as a significant starting point. Its location within the city's heritage district makes it an integral part of any cultural itinerary in Perak's capital.
