The Johor Ancient Temple is a beautiful and historic spot right in the heart of Johor Bahru. It’s amazing how this temple has stood the test of time, surrounded now by modern buildings, yet still retaining its charm and cultural significance. The temple is small but rich in history, with its intricate architecture and well-preserved artifacts. It’s a peaceful place to visit, and you can feel the deep connection it holds for the local community. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area, especially if you enjoy exploring cultural landmarks. It’s a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of the city!

Quaint Chinese temple with quite some history involved. It is apparently assemble of unity among 5 Chinese ethnic groups and they have it written down on the walls together with the relics from the past which makes it an interesting place to walk around. The temple itself is not that huge but it is clearly loved.

Actually I have never noticed it until now in Lunar New Year when there were lion dances and many people going over to pray for the new year. There were also barriers set up so that those needy ones could receive some angbao token from the ricker folks.

Almost can't believe there is an ancient temple built in 1870.. many devotees came here to do prayer and pay respect to the various God's. There is a Guan Yin shrine on the left. On the right of the temple is a historical tour of the temple and introduction of the various God's. At the back are some old relics. There are limited roadside parking lots. If not, it's just a walking distance from ciq or jb sentral..
