when I made my post Street Art circuit 🎨 Old Phuket we had discovered an amazing small Chinese temple and I had promised to make a post about it. Well it is now done! 😊
The Old Town is a destination to do during your stay in Phuket (highly recommended by me 🤣). With its architecture, its animation, its little gems... it's very easy to spend a full day there without realizing it.
Lors de mon post Street Art dans le vieux Phuket j'étais tombé sur un petit temple chinois fort sympatique et je vous avais dit que j'en ferais un post, et bien le voici. 😉
La vieille ville est vraiment une destination à faire durant votre séjour à Phuket. Que ce soit son architecture, son animation, ses petites pépites... il y est très facile d'y passer la journée sans s'en rendre compte.
example of gems (photos above) with bicycles fixed to a front and one of the covered passages between the main street and a parallel street.
And then, there are the temples (Chinese and Thai)
Petit exemple de pépites avec des vélos accrochés à une façade et l'un des passages couverts entre la rue principale et une rue parallèle.
Et puis bien sur il y a les temples Chinois et Thaï.
Located at 72/1 Yaowarat Road, it's easy to pass by without realizing that what is inside is worth the visit, because it's between 2 big buildings.
Built in 1891 by the Hokkien Chinese descendants of the Tan Luan Jae family, it's the Shrine of the Serene Light (Ting Kwan Tang in chinese, Saeng Tham Shrine in Thai). The objective was to provide a sacred place for a cult dedicated to their ancestral gods.
Situé au 72/1 Yaowarat Road, on peut facilement passer à côté sans imaginer ce qu'il y a à voir étant coincé entre 2 grands batiments.
Construit en 1891 par les descendants chinois Hokkien de la famille Tan Luan Jae, c'est le sanctuaire de la lumière sereine (Ting Kwan Tang en chinois, Saeng Tham Shrine en thaï). L'objectif était de fournir un lieu sacré pour un culte consacré à leurs dieux ancestraux.
The level of detail and the care taken on the 2 entrance columns totally captivated me. I don't know how long I stayed watching and taking pictures of them.
A shrine of architectural design derived from the traditional Chinese Hokkien, as can be seen with the terracotta roofs (also present in the hall and access floor).
Pour ma part, rien que les détails sur les 2 colonnes d'entrées m'ont totalement bloqués. Je suis resté je ne sais combien de temps à les regarder et les photographier.
Un sanctuaire dont la conception architecturale est dérivée du Hokkien chinois traditionnel, comme on peut le voir avec les toits en terre cuite.
Once you have passed the main entrance, you'll be in a small alley with a mural all along (the one you can see in my street art post). From there, we can see a second entrance at the end of the small alley.
Une fois la porte principale passée, l'on se retrouve dans une allée étroite avec une fresque en faisant tout le long (celle de mon post sur le streetart). De là, l'on peut voir une deuxième porte au bout de l'allée.
Once this second door is passed, the temple is finally in front of us. What a beautiful small temple and especially what a roof!
Une fois cette seconde porte passée le temple se trouve enfin devant nous. Quel magnifique petit temple et surtout quel toit!
As with the columns at the entrance, I was captivated, this time by the roof of the temple, looking at the details through my Tamron lens.
Comme pour les colonnes à l'entrée je suis resté bloqué, cette fois sur le toit du temple a regarder les détail via mon objectif Tamron.
I also really liked the building on the left which was extremely well decorated.
J'ai aussi trouvé que le batiment de gauche était lui aussi extrêment bien décoré.
This temple was a very nice discovery where I spent a very pleasant moment.
Ce temple fût une belle découverte où j'ai passé un très agréable moment.
