Second day At Ipoh

Ok, Woke up and took a terrible cold bath, as though you’re taking bath up in the mountains. No water heater there, BUT  the body liquid soap I used there has the Lavender scent, damn nice, I’m willing to bath many times even at night XD

First picture in the early of the morning. I took this from my bedroom, oh yeah, the room I’m sleeping there is no air cond. Just open window and fan like that its already as cold as if you on the air cond.

 

 

 

 

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok out next spot is to visit a old Chinese temple called “三宝佛洞 San Bao Fo Dong” This place is very interesting because there is a buried temple somewhere in there which forbidden us to go in because of the land slide or something. The small temple was the original temple before this new one was built, Its almost buried until the only thing we can see was a few Monk’s head and of course the Roof. My height is about 159cm, so the roof is about my shoulder length. *Happy happy* HAHAHHA.

 

The three Chinese word from the left is “三宝洞 San Bou Dong”. This is the entry to a small temple inside and then to a hidden garden (its not actually hidden, but i put it there to make it more … “wow” later will show you the pictures from the garden 8 )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ok from the entry, We’ll go through it like this. But before we enter the tunnel there is a place where people pray, didn’t take pictures there because there was people praying. And a big Buddha statue there. Not good la.

This is a small stool for people to kneel down and pray.

 

 

 

 

 

There is this sacred building too, where they keep all those valuable Buddhist scrolls inside. This is a bigger picture of the building.

 

But for one reason I really don’t know why there is this western style baby statue there. o.o

 

 

 

 

 

A blocked staircase.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is where people burnt things for the dead.

There is a Lily pond in there too.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then outside, there is this small garden la.

All these monk statue are called “小沙弥 xiao sha mi a.k.a small monk”

 

 

 

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then visited my beloved grandpa. I have no idea why he was buried in a Christian cemetery though. *Damn nice there*

 

I came to find out that we shared the same birthday date few years ago when I cared to really read around. I never visit him alot when I was young, because he pass away when I was 3. And the fishy thing is, my parents didn’t tell me about it and actually when was his actual birthday date. So I’m wondering did dear old granpa set his birthday day date when I was born. Well, I’m just wondering, no true facts though.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then went back after lunch and continue mahjong again.

 

Those antique furniture and that old piano was there even before I was born. Keys was outta tune and can barely play, but still can play lol.
