Ho Ann Kiong Temple, Taoist temple in Chinatown, Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia.

The temple features traditional Chinese architecture with red walls, gold ornaments, and intricate stone carvings throughout the structure.

Chinese immigrants constructed Ho Ann Kiong Temple in 1801, establishing the first Taoist religious center in the state of Terengganu.

Local Chinese community members gather at the temple to perform religious ceremonies and maintain connections with their ancestral traditions.

The temple welcomes visitors every day of the year and stands near other attractions including Abidin Mosque and Terengganu State Museum.

A large wishing tree behind the temple received prayers during a 1915 epidemic when residents sought protection from widespread illness.
