【怡保好地方】南天洞 IPOH Attraction: Nam Thean Tong


Nam Thin Tong Temple/ Nam Thean Tong (Cave of the Southern Sky) is located in between Sam Poh Tong and Ling Sen Tong. "Tong" is referred as "cave" while "Nan" is South and the word "Tian" is sky; so if you translate that in English, it simply means, the Cave to host the various Buddhist figures from the southern Sky (heaven). As illustrated with the various colorful personalities and characters at the lower portion of the temple entry section. This is a Taoist Temple in its nature and its another alternative name is Nan Dao Yuan ("Nam Tou Yun" in Cantonese), means College of Southern Religious Principles).
*Around 10mins from Yens' Home

南天洞 位于三宝洞和灵仙岩之间。 “tong” 被称为“洞穴”,而“Nan”被称为“南边”,“Tian”字是天空,因此,它是意味着,洞穴将承载南天空(天堂)的各种佛教人物,如在寺庙入口部分的下部的各种彩色个性和角色所示。这是一个道教寺庙,其另一个名称是南道远(粤语中的“南头云”),意为南方宗教原理学院)。
*从彦轩出发大约需要10分钟的车程
