HARUM MANIS
Harumanis is a mango cultivar grown in Indonesia and Malaysia. In Malaysia, this fruit is synonymous with the state of Perlis. It is called harumanis because it emits a fragrant aroma and a sweet taste. The filling is thick yellowish and tastes good to eat with glutinous rice as one of the traditional dishes in the state of Perlis. It is also delicious eaten alone or processed in the form of juice or jam
EMPING
Emping is a classic Chinese dish composed from 65-70 percent matured sticky paddy grain. The paddy grain was roasted until it began to puff up, then mashed with a mortar and pestle. A clean 'emping' will result from winnowing the product. The flaking machine is used in the current procedure. The moisture content of the grain is a crucial aspect that affects the final product's quality, and it should be greater than 23%. The cultivar "Pulut Gajah" was discovered to be the best appropriate for 'emping' processing. There were several options for offering 'emping' as a morning cereal mentioned.
TERINAI DANCE
Inai or Terinai dance is a Malay traditional dance. This is a court dance performed during the circumcision ritual of royal officials' children. It is given to these infants just before they are circumcised and seated on the throne. Perlis, northern Kedah, and Kelantan are known for their inai dance. In comparison to other palace dances, this Inai dance is only performed during special occasions like as marriages, circumcisions, and royal coronations.

BUBUR ANAK LEBAH
Due to the similarities in appearance, bubur anak lebah might easily be mistaken for cendol dessert. Bubur anak lebah, on the other hand, is frequently likened to bubur cha cha in terms of flavour. Bubur anak lebah gets its name from the fact that the major component, rice flour, is formed into little lumps that look like "little bees." Coconut milk, lime, water, gula melaka, and pandan leaves are among the other essential materials needed to make bubur anak lebah. Bubur anak lebah is traditionally provided at thanksgiving rituals for the birth of a newborn child or other big celebrations such as weddings.
TARIAN DABUS
Tarian Dabus may have originated in Saudi Arabia around the time of Prophet Mohammad, as its name implies. Dancers will enter a trance similar to when they execute the kuda kepang. It's probable that dabus was utilised to train warriors against Islam's adversaries. The dance combines singing, dancing, and the usage of anak dabus, which are sharp instruments. Dancers would stab themselves with the anak dabus and be pelted with stones while performing the dabus. Surprisingly, no one was hurt.
CEMPAKA SARI
The moves of this classic court dance are matched by lovely music with equally matching words. The song "Cempaka Sari" was written by the late Sultan Idris Shah II of Perak. The dance aims to demonstrate the foresight of the old Perak Sultanate. The colour of the dancers' costumes, as well as the elaborately hand-crafted fans carried by the female dancers, exemplify the elegance, beauty, and joy of the dance.
CONGKAK
The state of Perak has a wide range of traditional games. Congkak is one of the games that has survived to this day. The congkak board and the congkak fruit are the two materials used in the game of congkak. Congkak boards are composed of various types of wood, with five or seven holes in a row known as 'kampung' and mother holes known as 'rumah' at both ends. Players will begin the game at the same time. They would take the congkak fruit and place one into each 'village' as they walked clockwise to their respective residences, until one of them came to a halt at an empty hole and was assumed dead. The player's 'home' is in the end hole to the left of the player. The other player will continue to sprint until he reaches an empty hole.
