Thean Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur is one of the largest Chinese temples in Malaysia. Dedicated to Goddess Tian Hou (Heavenly Empress), the temple was opened in late 80s and has became a popular tourist destination known for its beautiful architecture as well as numerous cultural and festivity events.

Sharing a few photos during my visit last week; was attending a friend’s marriage registration ceremony, a popular sub-service provided by the temple…

    Been there during CNY years ago too… splendid indeed. Not sure if it’s as impressive these days; perhaps I should pay a visit next year during CNY to check it out.
