Kampung Kling Mosque

The Qingyun Pavilion, built free from 7:00 to 19:00 in the 15th century, is the oldest Chinese temple in Malaysia. Inside the temple, there are inscriptions commemorating the first visit of Zheng He, Ambassador of the Ming Dynasty, to Malacca. All building materials and craftsmen are imported from China. The roof of the temple is decorated with Chinese mysterious animals made of glass and clay. There are three altars in the temple, one for Confucianism, one for Buddhism and one for Taoism.
