Ching San Yen Temple is situated at Muara Tebas, in a Village called Kampung (in english Village) Muara Tebas. This place has been a fishing and trading village for centuries.
The Shine was renovated in 1903 follow by a major renovation from 1994 to 2000.
That was a short history about Ching San Yen Temple that i know of...
On a usual Saturday late afternoon, Hui Hui and Me decided to paid a visit to Ching San (that what we usually call it). The distance is about 38 km from Kuching, hence its only take about 30 minutes drive.
I parked my car in front of one of the two restaurant there at the foot hill. Its wasn't much people on that particular day. so we walks up the steps to the temple and take pictures along the way.
