Ling Seng Tong & Nam Tin Tong Caves - Ipoh, Perak

Just a short picture post. Nothing much to say about the following temples. Personally I didn't like them one bit. These two temples are located on the same road as the famous Sam Poh Tong cave.


Entrance to Ling Seng Tong Cave.


Ling Seng Tong contains a lot of figures from Chinese folklore including the Monkey King pictured here.


It's the Monkey King again but a few cast members from the Journey to the West story is missing.


A statue of the goddess Kuan Yin who looks like Hong Kong actress Nancy Sit!

Next up is Nam Tin Tong Cave.


Entrance to Nam Tin Tong Cave.


There's nothing much here except some interesting fish. This one is huge... easily 5 feet long.


Another picture of the huge fish. I don't know what it's called.


They've also got some pretty big arowanas. This fish is probably worth several thousand ringgit (although it's not the most expensive variety of arowana).
