The palace for worshiping the Heavenly Queen, Mazu - Tianhou Palace

The Le Sheng Ling Tianhou Palace, also known as the Kuala Lumpur Tianhou Palace, is located at Robson Height in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is dedicated to the Heavenly Queen, Mazu, and was built by the Hainanese Association of Selangor & Kuala Lumpur. It was completed in 1987 and opened in 1989. It is a landmark Chinese temple in Kuala Lumpur. Besides its religious purposes, Tianhou Palace also serves as a tourist attraction in Kuala Lumpur and a venue for local community events. This magnificent multi-tiered Chinese temple houses the Heavenly Queen and offers a splendid view of Kuala Lumpur. In recent years, it has also become a tourist attraction, especially during Chinese festivals and the birthdays of the many deities worshipped in the temple. You can admire the inlaid dragon and phoenix patterns on the decorated eaves up close from the top floor of the temple. The architecture of Tianhou Palace mainly combines Lingnan and North China styles. The main hall's roof features Lingnan-style auspicious animals such as dragons, phoenixes, fish, and shrimps, while the roofs of the side halls and archways display various ridge beasts in the North China style. Inside the temple, you can see structures rich in traditional Chinese architectural characteristics, such as colored beams, dougong brackets, que pedestals, railings, caisson ceilings, dragon columns, and glazed tiles.
