Kuala Kangsar , the royal city of Perak,beside the PerakRiver. The name is derived from ''Kuala Karong-Sa'', which means 99 tributaries flow into the Perak River. The Perak Dynasty originated from the Malacca Dynasty and was founded by the son of Sultan Mahmud Shah.

It is said that when Portugal occupied Malacca, a prince went south and later established the Johor Dynasty. Another prince went north by boat and disembarked at the mouth of the Perak River near Bangan Datuk. Before going ashore, there was a little adventure. Suddenly there was a big wave on the sea. Fortunately, an elder advised the prince to throw the crown into the sea, and then he landed safely in calm weather. This is why the Sultan of Perak has no crown yet, but the Sultan of Johor wears a crown when he is crowned. The prince moved along the PERAK River for many years, and finally settled in Kuala Kangsar as his capital.

 

In the past, the ancient towns were built along the river, so there are many historical sites and legends, which are fascinating.

At that time, it was a boarding school for the royal family , nobles and Malay elites,  cultivated many political and economic talents, high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

维多利亚女皇与吡叻国王一世纪的河边漫步; “日古镇,风韵犹存,再显风骚!

 

江沙,吡叻王城。位于吡叻州母亲河,吡叻河旁。名字源自于 “Kuala Karong-Sa”,意思是99条支流流入吡叻河。吡叻王朝源自马六甲王朝,由苏丹马末莎儿子所创立。

话说当年葡萄牙领马六甲,一位王子南下,后来建立柔佛王朝。另一王子乘船北上,在靠近Bangan Datuk 的吡叻河口上岸。在上岸前还有一个小惊险,海上突然大浪滔天,幸得一长者,劝告王子把头上的王冠抛入海中,才得风平浪静,安全登陆。这也是为何至今吡叻州苏丹没有皇冠而柔佛苏丹加冕时有戴上皇冠的典故了。王子沿着吡叻河,经过多年展转,最后才定都江沙。

 

昔日古镇都沿河而建,因此也留不不少古和传说,令人迷醉响往。

历史遗迹计有:Raja Bendahara 老老庄园,江沙皇家马来学院(1905),亦有东方伊顿学院Eton College 之称。当年为王亲贵族及马来精英寄宿学校,栽培出不少政治及经济人才,达官贵人。望台(Pavilion)Polo club 马球场旧址就在其旁。除了锡矿,橡胶也是马来亚的主要原产品,第一棵橡胶树(1877)植于江沙。Idris Club (俱乐部)(1903). 政局(1930),对面就是金顶大钟楼(1939). Dataran Putra 的英式红电话亭䇄立于此。King’s Pavilion, 参政司休罗爵士的庄圆,购于1878年。

 

还有几个闻名的古皇家园及清真寺。皇家陵园(Royal Mausoleum ), 其旁为声名显赫的乌布达雅清真寺(Ubudiah Mosque,1917). 对面有一间回教学院,Madrasah Idrisiah. 

 

江沙皇家故宫(Istana Kenangan,1926). 这皇宫成完全没有使用一枚钉子,传统高脚木制工艺,至今仍然能显出当年的宏伟气势。宫内的珍宝现收藏于皇家博物馆(Galery Sultan Azlan Shah, 原是旧皇宫Istana  Ulu/Istana Kota, 1903)。此博物馆陈列着苏丹的个人收藏品,如照片,奖状,文件及贡品等。在这座富丽堂皇的宫殿里,苏丹收藏了他最喜爱的珍品及个人收藏,展示了苏丹的雄厚财力。现今仍旧作为皇家仪式使用皇宫名Istana Iskandariah(1933).

 

其他附近的传统马来高脚屋还有Baitul Rahmah , Rumah MeorBaitul Noor 。朴素典雅,庄严大气。

 

市内比较老的华人建筑有崇华小学,1911。悦来餐室。

 

英殖民建筑有Clifford school (1897),Anglican Church (1908).

还有英殖民留下的杰作,维多利亚火车轨铁桥,Victoria Bridge, 靠近宁罗新村。

 

越过江沙大桥,就会抵达对岸名为沙蓉(Sayong)的小村庄。黑陶瓷(Labu Sayong)为江沙盛产的古老手工艺术品。

 

江沙河畔公园有个小码头,心血来潮,可以乘搭船只游览江沙河(Sg Kangsar)。幸运的话,还可以观赏到鹭鸟。

 

老城镇必有老味道。

小食有云吞面,档门庭如市,还有肉质鲜嫩的烧鸡和鸡粥。吸引了不少老饕。悦来茶餐室的咖喱牛肉包

双狮酒店内的传统椰丝面包都令人回味无穷。

小炒则有清蒸河鱼,咖喱鱼头,咸蛋苏冬,干煎虾,双味猪手,姜蓉菜园鸡,菜莆豆腐等等。友族美食则以Laksa 闻名。

 

江沙小镇不大,离怡保车程大约-小时。独有的皇室氛围,马来传统及英殖民地留下的英式风格建筑令这古都更显其贵气及优雅气质。来到吡叻怡保,别忘来江沙沾沾王气哟!
