About Batu Gajah
Batu Gajah is a small town in the Kinta District of Perak State with a population around 34,000 permanent residents. Batu Gajah has a good range of amenities for a town of this size, including a large and well known golf course, and attracts fairly large numbers of day visitors. Batu Gajah was also an important tin mining centre during the colonial era and the architectural remnants of this era make Batu Gajah a moderately popular tourist centre, particularly for Malaysian and Singaporean visitors, although the town is much less visited than nearby Ipoh.
Kellie’s Castle near Batu GajahBatu Gajah has two major tourist attractions. The first of these is the European style buildings in the town centre, which can you visit on foot by following the Batu Gajah Heritage Trail which takes visitors past 24 historic sites including:
- Sri Subramaniyar Swami Kovil Hindu temple.
- The old Railway Staff Quarters.
- The Royal English School building.
- The colonial era Government Rest House.
- God’s Little Acre, which is a Christian cemetery.
The other major tourist attraction in Bata Gajah is Kellie’s Castle, which is located 6 km by road from Batu Gajah Railway Station. Kellie’s Castle is a large mansion built between 1915 and 1926, but never quite completed. This huge building incorporates Scottish, Moorish and Tamil architectural styles and was the project of a Scottish settler who, according to legend, built the structure to impress his new wife from Scotland. The settler, William Kellie-Smith, died in 1926 at which point his bereaved wife returned to Scotland, and the property was sold to a major tea plantation company, Harrisons and Crosfield. The building has been partly refurbished and is now a museum and occasionally a venue for major events.
