    I've never been to Burma, so I've never seen a Burmese temple. I'm not sure if this is what they are really like there, or is a Penangish version of what. In any event, it was really color, and I hope I'm not insultinig any Burmese Buddists who may be reading this, but it was sort of a fun place to visti.

    The temple is located at Burma Lane off Burmah Road...once you find the road you will never miss it coz its Golden Roof will greet you from afar ...the existence of this temple show sthe presence of Burmese community and influence since time immemorial ...if you want to know ethnicity that has made Penang such a beautiful cultural melting pot ..take a visit to the State Muzeum The main hall housed a tall Standing Buddha , the ceiling is adorned with delicate wood carvings and behind the Standing Buddha are two rows of smaller buddhas , each differ from other depicting Buddhas from different parts of the world Japan, Korea, China, India etc etc

    World Guardian and Protector There is a statue of this weird looking animal in the Burmese Temple. It is the combination of five best animals. It has trunk and tusks like elephant, four hoofed legs like horse, face like lion, horn like deer and tail like fish.

    The Burmese Buddhist Temple is just across the road from the Reclining Buddha Temple... It is a much more interesting temple than the one across the road...there is so much to see inside and out.
