Hong San Si Temple Celebration 凤山寺庙会


Night scene sketch @ Hong San Si Temple, Kuching, 05.04.2010

The Hong San Si Temple, located at the junction of Wayang Street (花香街) & Ewe Hai Street (友海街), was originally built by the Hokkien clansmen in 1848 with the host deity of the temple is Kong Teck Choon Ong (广泽尊王). Each year, on the 22nd day of the 2nd month of Lunar calender, the temple will celebrate the birthday of the deity with offering ceremony and the street procession. This temple celebration, particularly the night street procession with colourful traditional performance is part of our important local cultural & heritage events which has been held annually.
