#2023travelwish This Hindu Glass Temple is the oldest in Malaysia, and was listed in the Malaysia Book of Records. So beautiful and full of shiny glass pieces. You would need to pay RM10 entrance fee if you are non-Hindu. I think it's very reasonable. The fee will be used to upkeep the temple. There are events and ceremonies on certain dates. Please check with the temple guy if you are interested. The temple is located near the famous Tan Hiok Nee Heritage Street in Johor Bahru. Free parking outside the temple. Next year I wish to travel to Iceland to see the Northern Lights.
