This morning's walk brought me to the second hand goods market place. It is also called the Loken Market Ipoh. It's only opened on Sundays from 630 to 1300.

When I arrive, most of the stalls are still just setting up.

Nevertheless, there are some pretty interesting finds. The typewriter is a relic of the past. I can't imagine people used to type long pages of documents without errors with this technology. What's on the right of it is a musical instrument, I presume. Perhaps an organ.

If I were to buy anything, it would have been this iron of the past. I think they put in burning charcoal to heat it up such that ironing is possible.

The place isn't very big, but so when I was leaving, other shops are still setting up. Here I saw more irons! So i guess it's never a good idea to FOMO!
