Shui Yue Temple. With reference to a newspaper cutting inside the temple, this is a 600+ temple in Malaysia. This is at the middle of jungle, and few hundred kilimeters away from Kota Bahru port, can't imaging how this temple can be built at 600+ years ago.
With the help from government, it was re-novated recently. It is located at the entrance of Pulai new village. Most of the people here speaks "Hakka" dialect and Mandrin. Mostly chinese who work in rubber estate.
In front of the temple is a river. Opposit is another small temple called "ZiXia Dong", or "ZiXia" Cave. We can either walk over the bridge to reach there, or drive there through a very narrow road. The view here is spectacular, but with the recently development, the water is a bit yellowish.
Inside the "ZiXia-Dong" there is a Buddha statue crafted from natural stone inside the cave. To reach the cave, you will have to walk up a 5 floor staircase.
The 30 feets tall Buddha statue is facing the river.
From here, you can see ShuiYue Temple is at the other side of the river.
Infront of the staircase, there is a small pond with "Jiang-Tai-Gong" status. There are fishes inside, but the water is a bit blur.
