Adventure trip to Chin Swee Cave Temple at Genting Highland with Wilson Chin

Went to Genting Highland for a 3 days 2 night trip, and one of the place I found very interesting is the Chin Swee Cave Temple, situated near the Genting Highland resort. You can use the free shutter bus from the first world hotel to reach there.

The Chin Swee translate to Chinese means clear water. The view are breathtaking, cause its situated on the top of the highland.
 
Many magnificent sculpture on the temple wall.
 

The godes of mercy
 
I read the story of The Journey to the West since I was little, and I like the story very much. I was born in the year of Monkey, so today I escort my master and protect him, and assist by two brothers to the Journey of the West to get the sutera. :P
 
My next destination, the tall Pagoda...
 
The highest are Level 9, ran up there, need to slowdown to catch my breath. But I did it!!!
 
Very nice view look above from Level 9 :)

Santubong Camping Adventure with Wilson Chin and friend






Had a wonderful camping trip at Santubong campsite over the weekend, just 10 minutes walk from the park ranger office we reach this open space area with flat ground, and a ready barbecue pit. There is a nice river next to our campsite, and its very important cause we can get life saving water from the stream.
There are total of 8 person, and the food we had was bamboo chicken, bamboo rice, fish, pork, and as for desert, we have soft drink, chips, and jelly. I was extremely full after all these food, my belly cannot handle all the food. 

It was a hot day, and after night fall, i got bitten by a few sand-flies, so quickly jumps into my tent and sleep. Overall, wonderful trip, next trip plan to camp at waterfall area. 




Check out the 3D view created by Microsoft Photosynth, will do more of these in the future.


Mount Hosanna Chapel with Wilson Chin, Borneo Sarawak






This is the Mount Hosanna Chapel, while on my way back from Sri Aman, I drop by this place, and it is located about 157 KM from Kuching city (near Seri Aman), Malaysian Borneo. You can see this chapel just beside the Kuching - Sri Aman highway.




What interesting about this place first is the design of the chapel, and second will be the story behind it, and it goes like where God spoke to the philanthropist who funded the church construction and healed his wife which is diagnose with critical illness.

When I meet one of the chapel members there, and asked about this, he deny this. And told me that this is not true, and it was the priest himself who raise the fund to build this chapel.


So I walk up to the chapel, and visit the place. Saw a priest is currently blessing the members.
The building looks like three big candles,  it means Trinity. In Christian doctrine, the Trinity is the unity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three persons in one Godhead



The scenery are nice up here, and this reminds me of mount Singai and mount Sentah which a church was build on the mount also
