According to legend, the Chinese temple owes its appearance to a certain Mrs. Malavan. In 1990, she had a vision in which Jao Mae Kuan Im ordered the construction of a temple to bring light to people.
The temple was built in 1992 and consists of three luxuriously decorated buildings. The main building is located in the center, inside it is a statue of the goddess Guan Yin. Another part of the complex is reserved for meditation, and the third is for receiving guests. There is a statue of a smiling Buddha nearby. Nowadays, people come to the Temple to pray and ask the Buddha for good luck.
