Pasir Salak is the site where JWW Birch, the first British Resident of Perak, was killed. The Pasir Salak Historical Complex is 70 km from Ipoh City in southern Perak. Pasir Salak is in the heartland of Perak Malay culture. Within the area around Pasir Salak are no less than 10 royal mausoleums to past Perak Sultans. It is at Pasir Salak that Perak handicrafts such as gold thread embroidery, Perak ceramics and Malay drums originated. Also from Pasir Salak came the Malay dances such as tarian selendang, lotah, dabus and tarian bubu.
