Unraveling Kellie’s Castle

Tucked away in the quiet town of Batu Gajah, Perak, stands one of Malaysia’s most mysterious and photogenic landmarks—Kellie’s Castle. I had seen photos online, but nothing prepared me for the eerie beauty and tragic story that surrounded this unfinished mansion. 💰Average Price per Person: Malaysian adults — RM 5, Malaysian kids — RM 3, Foreign adults — RM 10, Foreign kids — RM 8 🕰️Business Hours: Open daily from 9:30 am to 5:30 pm • In one chamber, tucked beneath the tall stone ceiling, chairs and tables remain—aged by time but untouched by the world outside. • Come Early or Late Afternoon – Beat the heat and the crowds. Morning light gives a soft, mystical glow, while late afternoons are perfect for photos. • Wear Comfortable Shoes – You’ll be exploring multiple floors, stairs, and slightly uneven paths. Skip the heels. • Bring Water & Sunscreen – It gets hot, and there’s limited shade once you’re exploring outside. • Read Up or Get a Guide – Understanding the story of William Kellie Smith and his unfinished legacy adds depth to the visit. #kelliecastle #attraction #hiddengemperak
