Incense - Goddess of Mercy (Quan Yin) Temple

Goddess of Mercy (Quan Yin) Temple is one of the oldest Temples in Penang from around 1800. The temple is found on Cannon street near the Esplanade.

It was founded in 1801 on East India Company land by Chinese immigrant settlers, the temple looms over visitors with its prominent red roof, snarling dragons and lions. It bristles with endless activity all year round and the air is perpetually permeated with sandalwood incense, burnt joss sticks

I was amazed at the size of these incense sticks in the front of the temple , the were huge easily head height and at least 6’’ thick.
