Perak Tong north first 8:30am — 40m golden Buddha inside limestone cave, climb hilltop pavilion before sun hits. Sam Poh Tong south after 11am — free, tortoise pond, Ling Sen Tong colorful add-on next door. Grab RM10–15 between. Both before 10am; Ipoh hotter than Penang by midday. Perak Tong emptier at opening.

Perak Tong 8:30 then Sam Poh Tong 11 — worked fine. Grab RM10–15 between.

Perak Tong empty at 8:30 — Sam Poh Tong busier by 11 but still fine.
