Kuan Yin Statue at Chin Swee Temple, Genting Highlands


This is a giant statue of Kuan Yin, The Goddess of Mercy at the Chin Swee Temple, Genting Highlands. A normal person's height is just tall enough to reach the tip of the lotus flower that she is standing on at the bottom (not seen here).

Do not dwell in the past,
Do not dream of the future,
Concentrate the mind on the present moment.
..... Buddha's saying

  3. The sheer size of the statue explains the nice perspective of your photo.
