The Peace Hotel
One of the many nice Chinese buildings of Taiping

when did you take the picture? why no people? the reason i ask is that the area is usually full of pedestrians, not to say traffic. also, the food there is much better than the hotel. cheap and tasty. and you can usually watch the people pass by while you eat. because the bus and taxi stations are nearby and with a supermarket across the road -- as well as several bazaars and the taiping convent (school) nearby -- you can see all manner of people doing all kinds of things. or fridays, the scene changes slightly as sarong clad men walk to the mosque a stone's throw away. a sociologist's dream. /stephen

The picture was taken on Monday morning at 9:52 am. I had to wait for about 15 minutes before there was no traffic for a split second..:-)
