If you enter the clan temple, you feel a sudden serenity eventhough the temple is located beside the very busy Chulia street. It is also the 2006 winner of an Award of Merit from the Unesco Asia-Pacific Heritage Award for Culture Heritage Conservation.

Kek lok Si is superbly lit during the Chinese New Year every year (usually falls in Jan/Feb). It is worth a visit despite the crowd and traffic.

Cost : RM 2/person to access to the pagoda where the lanterns are
