Perak River

The Perak River (Malay: Sungai Perak) is the second longest river in Peninsular Malaysia after the Pahang River.

A number of towns are on the banks of the river including the royal town of Kuala Kangsar. Most of the settlements in what is today Perak were situated near the river until the 19th century, when tin deposits were discovered elsewhere, most notably Ipoh.
