Located at
Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman, the century-old Chinese temple
is the oldest of its kind in Kuching. It is particularly famous
for its Wang Kang celebration to commemorate the spirit of the
dead.
The temple
was supposed to have been built as early as 1843 but official
records only recognised its existence in 1876 when temple devotees
in the community made various repairs and renovations to it.
