San Ching Tian Temple, Chinese temple in Krokop, Miri, Malaysia.
San Ching Tian Temple is an expansive religious complex featuring elaborate architectural elements including dragon reliefs and statues of the Three Pure Ones brought from China. The site contains multiple courtyards and prayer halls designed for different religious functions and daily worship activities.
Construction began in 2000 and was completed in 2003, during which extensive decorative work and architectural development took place. The project required careful planning to realize the complex design and detailed interior spaces that characterize the site today.
This is the principal Taoist religious center in Southeast Asia, where traditional ceremonies and community gatherings take place year-round. Visitors can observe local spiritual practices and witness how residents use the space for worship and social connection.
The temple is located in Krokop and is accessible by taxi or local ride-sharing services. Visitors should wear comfortable clothing and check current opening hours before visiting, as there may be specific guidelines during certain times.
The courtyard is filled with numerous wind chimes scattered throughout the grounds, creating gentle tinkling sounds. This musical element is one of the subtle but pleasant characteristics visitors notice when spending time on the site.
