Back in the day, many locals in Bukit Chandan admired the work of master craftsmen and builder Tuan Haji Sofian. Baitol Anor is one of his masterpieces, commissioned by Raja Kechil Sulong Harun Al Rashid for his third wife.
The word baitol means 'house' in Arabix, and was named after their eldest son, Raja Anor Shah. While the mansion is currently abandoned, it remains as one of Kuala Kangsar's fascinating traditional Malay architecture.
