A Taoist temple dedicated to Tua Pek Kong and was founded in 1795 during the Dutch occupation by Chinese Kapitan Chua Su Cheong (Tsai Shih-Chang), to solve the problem of an all weather prayer hall for the graves at Bukit Cina. The interior of the temple has the prayer hall and a mini museum out back. Photographs are permissible, just ask for permission from Auntie who manages the temple. A restroom is also located out back of the temple area. When and if you do offer prayers and light a jos stick it is recommended to drop a few coins in the box for the upkeep of the temple grounds. Still parking is a challenge around these parts, where the temple is also co located with two other historical spots. #RP

It might not be the most grandiose temple but probably the most historical significant one around among the Chinese community. Here you can have a glance at how the Chinese set foot on this foreign land and eventually became a part of it. Also the struggles and fights behind it They also provide a quick guide for Bukit China (terrain, animals and plants...) Have a look if you're interested in taking a walk around the hill And you'd know it's a nice place to go when there're so many cats around

We loved this beautiful temple and we loved how there was a star fruit tree at the back and there were many monkeys eating from it. There is a lot of information and history of this area in the temple also. “Jonique Life” If you find value in our reviews please consider following our social media outlets on Facebook and Instagram as we highlight magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.

A small historic temple embedded with 600 years history, surrounded by lengendary drinking well and San Po Hill. The small temple recall you with the history how first generation of Chinese earn their life away from their homeland. The temple in Melaka attracted several Chairman of PRC to visit, which total reflect how importance about the Chinese relationship.

China's favorite first choice site for visit because this place is a historic site for Melaka. When Admiral Zheng He came to Melaka, the Sultan met him and asked his fellowmen to live here, the foot of Bukit Cina. Updated on Tue 3 Sep 2019 7.58 pm This temple is still closed. The traders areas outside this temple has become a garden. Tue 8 Aug 2020 9:01a.m.

A place with over 600 years of history. Visiting this place itself brings us back to another era and it's interesting to know how the Chinese came to Melaka. And the place has a wishing well to pray for our wishes to happen which I find absolutely cool. It has a very peaceful atmosphere even with lots of people around. Absolutely a must visit!
