Sam Poh Tong, Popular Cave Temple in Ipoh

#summervacay Sam Poh Tong is a historic Buddhist cave temple in Gunung Rapat, Ipoh, surrounded by dramatic limestone cliffs. Dating back to the late 19th century, it features a serene rock garden, koi ponds, and a peaceful cave housing Buddha statues. Visitors can explore its tranquil grounds, feed turtles in the sanctuary, and enjoy the cool air inside the cave. Though parts of the site show signs of wear, its natural and spiritual charm remains. Located near other cave temples like Kek Lok Tong and Ling Sen Tong, it's a meaningful stop for those seeking culture, calm, and scenic views in Ipoh.
