Thean Hou Temple is a magnificent six-tiered Chinese temple that offers one of the most picturesque views of the Kuala Lumpur skyline. The temple itself is a feast for the eyes, with its vibrant red lanterns, intricate carvings, and elaborate pagodas. It’s a place where Buddhist, Taoist, and Confucian traditions beautifully merge. The best part is that it's completely free to enter. It’s a great spot for photographers and anyone looking for a rich cultural experience. Visiting during a festival like Chinese New Year is particularly special, as the entire temple is adorned with thousands of glowing lanterns.
