Loong Thow Ngam Temple (31 January, 2006)


Loong Thow Ngam Temple (GPS: 4.63214, 101.08794; Traditional Chinese: 龍頭巖, Simplified Chinese: 龙头岩, Pinyin: Lóngtóu yán) is a Chinese temple in Ipoh, Perak. It is located on the right side of the road that leads to Taman Rekreasi Gunung Lang. As with so many of the temples in Ipoh, this is yet another cave temple, with the images of deities places within the hollow caverns of the limestone caves and crevices.

The latest addition to the temple is a two-storey structure dedicated to the Jade Emperor. This is reached via a grand staircase.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
