Heng Len Tuah Temple (GPS: 5.41036, 100.33371; Traditional Chinese: 顯靈壇, Simplified Chinese: 显灵坛, Penang Hokkien: Hean1 Leng3 Tnua2 ) is a temple in Noordin Street Ghaut, George Town. It is on the eastern part of the Seven Street Precinct.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy.
