Hello, all beautiful people here, last Sunday my sister-in-law she also a pinay her husband and my husband are cousins, then one more friend of mind we decided to go around just like a tourist, the first destination is the famous Hindu temple which I already posted share to world mappin community. We just wanted to visit different temples that are open to tourists’ people, and for my 15 years here I have never gone to a Chinese temple since my sister-in-law and her husband doing tourist guides she brought me a place that was open for tourists the temple of Chinese.

But sadly the day we went we only explored outside the temple because it was closed that day. When we arrived at the gate of the temple I was so amazed by the colors and details that I couldn't stop adoring it, the hanging lanterns that they placed on the walkway and swinging by the gentle wind, it is so welcoming feeling. We are busy taking pictures for our remembrance of the visit and for me, I’m excited to share my pictures to hive as well. Thean Hou Temple is not just a place to worship it was a testament to centuries of Chinese culture and beliefs, a place where Chinese history and spirituality come together in a truly remarkable.



As my friend Rechelle and I first time my sister-in-law guided us to the temple and we took our time to explore the different areas. Life changes when having children my life is mostly in the house working on my kids and the house while doing my online business a simple way of relaxing to get more positive energy to work on reality this is a good short getaway with close friends, this things we won't forget and the bond will last forever, the feeling of the weight of the life responsibilities this is not bad at all to redeem back our self for few hours and go back to reality with strong spirit and peaceful mind. Before we decided to go, we made our way to the place where people could light incense and watched the devotees lighting incense and offering prayers, and it reminded us of the importance of gratitude and success this year. As we finish I feel ready to return to the hustle and bustle of daily life, I couldn’t help but feel renewed. This temple is not just a tourist spot it was a place that had given us a chance to reflect, recharge, and strengthen our friendship bond.





For all the stresses of life, it was a reminder of the simple joys of being together, of taking a moment and honoring the bonding. As we had to go to the next destination this is the journey to the Thean Hou temple had been more than a visit to a beautiful site, it had been a journey of connection a moment in time that reminded me how important it is to nourish the friendship that helps us navigate life. As we walked away from the temple, I thought I wanted to come again to see what was inside since we didn’t have a chance to get inside this time, I will always remember when life became overwhelming, but also because, in places like Thean Hou Temple, we found something that always brought us back to ourselves. On our way home while my sister-in-law was driving we kept on talking about the temples we visited during the day and we decided to go to the mall and have some drinks we also decided to have our dinner before going home, a wonderful day and unforgettable moment.
