.....Bila yang tertulis untukku Adalah yang terbaik untukmu
Kan kujadikan kau kenangan Yang terindah dalam hidupku
Namun takkan mudah bagiku Meninggalkan jejak hidupku
Yang tlah terukir abadi Sebagai kenangan yang terindah....
---Samsons, Kenangan Terindah.
"When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us." ----
Alexander Graham Bell
The Istana Kenangan is a charming wooden structure in Kuala Kangsar. Also known as Istana Lembah and Istana Tepas, Istana Kenangan is a short distance from Istana Iskandariah and the Ubudiah Mosque.
Istana Kenangan was built around the same time as Istana Iskandariah. After the calamity of the Big Flood of 1926, when the original palace, Istana Sri Sayong, was almost swept away, a decision was made to built a new palace that is on higher ground. Istana Kenangan was built as a temporary mausoleum for the late Duli Yang Maha Mulia Sultan Iskandar Shah (Marhum Kadasallah), while awaiting the completion of Istana Iskandariah nearby.
Istana Kenangan is noted for being built entirely of wood, without the use of nails. It was planned to shape like a sword (pedang) in its scabbard (sarung pedang). The handle of the sword is where the Sultan's bedchamber is located. The scabbard is where the royal court or Balai Rong Seri was located. Although small, it has a beautiful throne (singgahsana). The walls are made of diamond-shaped plaits (kelarai) while the roof structure takes the combined styles of the five ridges (perabung lima) and the ridge of the five bananas (perabung pisang sesikat).
Today Istana Kenangan comes under the state museum authority, and houses the Perak Royal Museum. On display here are exhibists on the history of the Perak monarchy as well as the personal collections of the past rulers of Perak.

Inilah jalan yang kulalui hampir setiap hari di masa kecil dulu. Kini jalan ini jarang kulalui, kecuali mau pulang lihat ibukku.
“ Istana Kenangan is also known as Istana Lembah and Istana Tepas. Originally, it was built as a temporary mausoleum for Duli Yang Maha Mulia Sultan Iskandar Shah (Marhum Kadasallah), while awaiting the completion of Istana Iskandariah. The building has now been converted into the Perak Royal Museum that exhibits the history of the monarchy and houses the heritage of the Perak State. Visitors have the opportunity to view the personal collections of thesultans who once govern the state of Perak. Furthermore photograph collections of members of the royal families of the past are kept in the museum. This building was built in 1926, and is considered an achievement, and unique in its local architecture for its design and fine built as well as construction which was without the employment of a single nail. The plan or the view from the top of the building shows the shape of a sword in its scabbard. The handle of the sword is where the Sultan’s bed chamber is located. The scabbard is the Balai Rong Seri of the Istana. Although small in size, it possesses a beautiful Sultan Throne (Singgahsana). The façade of the walls is made of diamond shaped plaits (kelarai), while the structure of the roof is said to inherit the combined styles of the five ridges (perabung lima) and the ridge of a row of banana (perabung pisang sesikat). Its original roof was made of wooden planks.”
