The Kek Lok Temple is a Chinese Buddhist place of worship in Air Itam, a suburb of George Town on the island of Penang. It is one of the largest temples of its kind in Southeast Asia and is considered the largest Buddhist temple in Malaysia. His name can be translated as "Temple of the Highest Luck". Wikipedia

Absolutely worth seeing temple complex - and also the largest Buddhist in Malaysia. Construction began in 1890 and expansions continue to this day.

You shouldn't start the bed too late. You should plan at least 2.5 - 3 hours. A funicular takes you up for little money. You should also do it in the heat.
