We loved the view as it is overlooking the lush green slopes of virgin forests; the Chin Swee Temple is where you can snap many beautiful photos of the hills.
Many people come to this temple for pray for better health, wealth or prosperity. 
I was told if you have a wish, you can come this temple to pray. 
Many people have got their wishes come true. 

For parents, we usually pray for child's safety, health and education. We also pray for family members
