Chin Swee Temple, Genting Highlands (14 January 2010)


Chin Swee Temple (GPS: 3.41259, 101.78812) is a Buddhist temple in Genting Highlands, Pahang. It was constructed by Genting founder Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong in 1975. Together with a group of friends, Tan Sri Lim pooled a fund for the temple. He also made a personal donation of RM8.1 million towards the building fund.

Chin Swee Temple occupies a 28-acre site on the hill slop about 4,600 feet above sea level. It offers splendid views of the surrounding Titiwangsa mountain range.

Chin Swee Temple took 18 years to build. It was finally officially opened to the public on 29 March 1994. The temple is now open daily from 7:30am to 6:00pm. Among the sights here include the Goh Tong Hall Residence and Chin Swee Deity Hall.

About this website

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. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
