Picture was taken on New Year Day of 1st Jan 2010.
Chin Swee Caves Temple is situated at 4,600 ft above sea level and it has the most scenic view of Genting Highlands. On a misty day, it looks like Heaven on Earth. Here, one could enjoy the calm and peaceful atmosphere while looking at the most breathtaking view of the surroundings.
This temple was built by the founder of Genting Highlands Resort, the late Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong. It took 18 years to complete and was officially opened on 29 March 1994.

I'm sorry for commenting late because I just came back from a 2 day outstation trip.
This is truly a beautiful temple. I've heard about it a long time ago. Just by looking at the picture does give a pleasant feeling of being the midst of heaven and earth. I checked the link you provided for more information about this temple and bookmarked it. Would definitely want to visit it one day.
ReplyDeleteI read your response to Bananaz' post on the gong man. You brought up a very interesting point about using the moon and sun shadow to read time. It does make sense how the celestial shadows could play an important role in guiding people to know what time of day it was.
