To be Fair

Right across Kampung Kling's Mosque

Right across the Kampung Kling mosque is the Kuan-Yin Temple. As kids, we used to visit the temple when we visited our grandparents. The temple then was very run down and had a huge pond with turtles. It was rather spooky. But since the explosion of tourist industry in the late 80s and 90s, Malacca has boomed and lots of funding for the refurbishment of the ancient temple.

The Kuan Yin temple now has fully restored to its old grandeur and attracted many visitors during the Chinese New Year. The turtle pond has since been removed. In its place are new chambers for dieties signifying bravery.
