Penang Kuan Yin
We finally managed to get to visit this awesome Kuan Yin after a long drive trying to locate the Penang Pagoda. In 2002, a 30.2m bronze statue of the Kuan Yin was completed and opened to public. It replaced the previous white plaster Kuan Yin statue which was damaged due to a fire a few years earlier. The bronze statue is located on the hillside above the pagoda while the head of the previous statue which survived the fire is preserved and placed on the right hand corner of the new statue. wikipedia The serene face of the Kuan Yin..
