Old Market

Taiping Market is an outstanding example of a 19th century market structure. It is over a hundred years old. Taiping Market consists of two buildings, the Old Market was built in 1884 and the New Market a year later. They are each 220 feet long and 60 feet wide. Together they form what is possibly the largest historic timber structure that is not of religious nature in Malaysia.
