during the night of the Chinese Festival
I have always visited the Shrine of the Serene and have watched it be renovated over the past few years and this week is their time for celebrating all of this..
Sin Jia Geng Shrine
Teng Gong Tong Shrine - all seem to be the same place?
The foundations for the shrine, originally called the Sin Jia Geng, were laid 122 years ago, in 1891. Until the renovation, it was a private shrine of the Tan clan, one of Phuket’s largest and richest extended families. Its construction was funded mostly by Tan Kuad, also known as Luang Amnart Nararak.
