The story of the Chin Swee Caves Temple

Chin Swee Caves Temple was built between 1976 and 1994 by Lim Goh Tong, the founder of Genting, in honour of Chin Swee, a revered monk from his home province of Fujian in China.

Clinging to the hillside at about 1,400 metres, the temple complex includes a nine-storey pagoda, a large seated Buddha statue and a path with sculptures depicting the Ten Courts of Hell. The views across the forested mountains are spectacular.
