Hmm, the last time i visited the Kek Lok Si temple was at 90's.
Recently, there was a newly built ornate shelter for the Kuan Yin statue. I have been told about the beauty of the temple.
So, i decided to go there.
Yesterday, my wife and i paid a visit to the temple.
Before that, we had koay jiap, claypot noodles and wantan mee as brunch. Appetizing!!
Guess what? So crowded there lo.
We could not even find a parking place. We ended up with parking our car in a lot which cost us RM3!
Shocking scene! Ewww..
There was a huge monitor lizard at the river bank nearby!!
We started going up the hill.
The shoplots along the staircase were really eye openers for us. They were selling souvenirs like shirts and clay faeces which look exactly like real faeces, haha!
After a few footsteps, we arrived at the liberation pond where tortoises were released into the pond.
The tortoises were cute as they were so so so clumsy.
We took the inclined lift, which was a bit too crowded and smelly. Yucks..!
The scenery and statues at the top of the hill were just amazing.
Below are some pictures of them. Enjoy!
There were statues of all the twelve Chinese zodiac.
They were carved nicely. Hope you might appreciate their beauty.
Besides the huge Kuan Yin statue, there is pond filled with Koi(鲤鱼). The fishes are smart. They swam in a flock in a circular motion around the fountain, forming a fantastic scenery!
Hehe, we bought two rice necklaces with our Chinese and English names on them.
They were our 10th month anniversary present for each other!
Thanks to the young man who made the necklaces for us,
excellent hand work!
Well, it was a terrific journey. I knew more about our religious and the environment there was relaxing.
See ya!
