Kim Tek Ie Temple, Chinese temple in Glodok, Indonesia

The temple displays traditional Chinese architectural elements with carved decorations, ornate roofs, and dual-level structures within a spacious courtyard complex.

Constructed in 1650 as Kwan Im Teng under Luitenant der Chinezen Kwee Hoen's direction, this structure represents the first Chinese temple built in Jakarta.

The temple functions as a central location for Chinese festivals in Jakarta, where community members gather for ceremonies and traditional celebrations.

Visitors can access the temple through public transportation options, with multiple bus stops and parking facilities available in the surrounding Glodok district.

The term klenteng, now used throughout Indonesia for Chinese temples, originated from this temple's first name, Kwan Im Teng.
