Temple on a hill >> Sarawak snapshots 03


Today, we went to Qing Shan, to visit the Chinese temple there. That, ostensibly, is the reason for driving an hour out of Kuching for a half-day excursion.

Pleasant drive, gentle scenery, smooth roads; panoramic vistas from the temple atop a small hill, with a Malay village below.

And then, jetty with seafood restaurants displaying their catch of the day. Now, that sounds like the real reason for this junket, if you ask me...
