Maybe becos its the 3rd day of CNY, hence it wasnt crowded.

Eat in that cafe must pay,hehehe...


There was some tourist there, and i met one of the auntie there too,hehehe...they came with their family and will be going back to Singapore on that same day i saw them. Meaning they are there for 3D2N.

Quite a handful of changes in this temple after i havent been there for around 2 years or so.


Notice the Korean words?

This temple is prospering from many tourist indeed. At least the temple place are doing something good for the locals in Batam; and regardless of race, language and religion.
