Cheng Hoon Teng Temple

Malaysia's oldest Chinese temple was built by Malacca's Kapitan Tay Hong Yong in the mid-17th century. The materials were shipped directly from China.

Also known as the Temple of the Bright Clouds, the whole construction covers an area of 4,600 sq metres. A huge complex, made up of small altar areas built around a central edifice, the whole area smells deliciously of flowers and incense.
