In the early days, Ipoh became wealthy on the backyard of the tin mining industry that flourished. The tin rush, early last century, brought in an influx of many races and cultures from the neighboring countries making it a melting pot of culture and variety. Many who came down as settlers made fortunes, built opulent town houses and made Ipoh home due to its laidback, old world charm and feel. These houses that the early settlers built lie mostly in the old town area, where the Indians have created their own 'Little India’ and the Chinese have created one of the Malaysia's best-preserved Chinatowns, the Old Town. The clash and amalgamation of various cultures and races is well evident in Ipoh as is in many other places in Malaysia, while it remains more real and untouched here than in any other.

The Old Town and New Town of Ipoh are separated by the Kinta River. Old Town hosts pre-World War II shop-houses, heritage buildings, and some Government buildings while the New Town comprises the area later developed, stretching all the way from Kinta River to Greentown holding the new face of Ipoh with its modern shops, buildings, shopping malls and housing estates and theme water parks.

Ipoh was made famous by its white coffee which is a popular drink that originated solely in Ipoh, Malaysia in which the coffee beans are roasted with palm-oil margarine, and the resulting coffee is served with condensed milk. White coffee, though it isn’t perfectly white, is produced with only margarine and without any sugar, resulting in a less dark roast.
