CHAN SEE SHU YUEN TEMPLE

This is the Chan clan kongsi, built in 1906. Originally, it was a clan house where members met in semi-clandestinity. The temple inside provided a religious façade for a secret society. The first thing you'll notice is the façade, richly decorated with glazed ceramic bas-reliefs. Scenes from daily life and Chinese legends are depicted. At the entrance, numerous ancestral tablets can be seen on the right, and photos of the Chan are to be found everywhere.
