Trip to Penang (Butterworth and George Town) Part 3/3

Third Day In Penang

Thus…after we safety reach the shore, went back to Shin Lan house and SLEEP!!! Was exhausted the day before due to lack of sleep!!

Woke up at 11 or 12pm++ for lunch. As for the third day we went to the vegetarian restaurant that Shin Lan recommended to us:

Different types of food we took..a lot…

After having lunch we went to this temple

P1030216

This temple is still in the process of upgrading, they have been upgrading since long time ago and and still in the process of doing it. People have spent millions of dollars investing this temple, as we go further you will see why such huge amount is spent here.

From the pictures above you can see that mostly of it are carvings right?? Hand carved to be exact, for huge carvings it takes about a year to finish the whole thing, average in side about half a year and small ones took about few months, so the fees that they charge for those carvings are extremely HIGH!!!

Both of this pictures are carving out on the stone in the wall..making it looks more realistic

Each pieces here won’t how many thousands…and have a look at the next picture

P1030251

This dragon is carved from inside till outside…fascinating isn’t it?? I believe this took around 1 year to complete it…one tiny mistake in the carve..whole stone gone!!

After admiring the whole temple, we went back to Shin Lan’s house…there we dropped Chia Yi and Feng Yi off, Shin Lan and I went off to some other place to buy cake for Chia Yi’s ‘surprise’ birthday part, which we helped her celebrated 1 month earlier…

Then we went back home to SLEEP again >
