Hiang Thian Siang Ti Temple (also written Guan Thian Siang Ti; GPS: 1.55842, 110.34556) is a Cantonese Taoist temple in Kuching. Located at No. 22, Jalan Carpenter, it was completed in 1889 by the Chinese settlers from Guangdong Province of southern China. It is called Lao Ya Keng in Teochew. Inside the temple is a small tortoise pond. As with most Taoist temples, it has a stage erected directly in front of it, for opera performances to entertain the deities. The stage here is located on the opposite side of Carpenter Street.
The feast day of the Guan Thian Siang Ti Temple is on the 4th day of the 12th lunar month. The area in front of the temple is occupied by food traders selling all sorts of local delicacies.

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.
