George Town, Penang, Malaysia is a world-famous seaside tourist resort city. Every day, thousands of tourists come here for sightseeing and vacation. There are many Chinese cultural relics and temple attractions in George Town, Penang. This time we will introduce a Chinese cultural relics and temple located on the shore of Butterworth: Tokong Kuan Yin Hean Boo Thean. Free to visit and take photos, no tickets required. Close to the shipping terminal and bus station, transportation is convenient. The Xuanmu Temple is built by the water and faces the Penang ferry terminal in the distance. Its Chinese-style architectural features display a solemn and ancient character, and it is also a beautiful sight. During the day, it looks like it has carved railings and jade, and there are also sculptures of the Twenty Filial Piety that remind people that filial piety is the most important virtue. You can also enjoy the sea view while facing the sea breeze, which makes people feel open-minded. At night, it has become a new photo spot for photography enthusiasts. The Xuanmu Palace with lights on at night is reflected in the rippling water in front of the Surname Bridge, which is indescribably beautiful and unique. This temple is also unique in that it has several archways, one of which is called the "Dragon Gate" and is built facing the sea. When the tide rises, the walkway of the Dragon Gate will be submerged, which has the auspicious meaning of "carp leaping over the Dragon Gate" and "pig cage entering the water". But no matter the tide comes and goes, Xuanmu Temple will stand at the Yang Bridge, continuing to guard this historic "Red Lantern Corner" (Yang Bridge is also known as Red Lantern Corner). It is a worthwhile attraction for tourists to George Town, Penang.
