- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ส.ค. 2019
- We continue the trip to Penang, Malaysia in this Buddhist temple in Penang Island. It will leave you speechless, especially if you come around the Chinese New Year. This is Kek Lok Si temple, located in George Town (Air Itam more specifically). Certainly among the top things to do in Penang and Penang Island. And it gets better: it's the largest Buddhist temple in Malaysia.

► WHO AM I?
Short answer: I am a Brazilian-American journalist living in Florida. After traveling the world working with sports, news, and events for over 15 years, I realized that what I really love is the travel part of it all. So I exchanged the life in the newsrooms and stadiums for the daily challenge of being an independent content producer. I created this channel to share the beauties of the world... stuff that for so long I only kept to myself. Also to help people planning similar trips and to inspire more people to venture out and enjoy life!
Detailed answer: • How we afford to trave... 😉
P.S.: The guy who occasionally appears in the vlogs is my husband, Gordon. He is Canadian-American and is extremely camera shy, that's why he's behind the camera most of the time ;-)

![[PENANG] KEK LOK SI TEMPLE | The largest Buddhist Temple in Penang](/img/n.gif)
I shot this video about 20 days after Chinese New Year. Sorry I couldn't upload sooner 😕😭. Editing takes a really long time, so real-life ends up moving faster... Anyways, I think there's still a lot of good information if you're planning to visit Penang and Malaysia, plus, this Buddhist temple fully lit is among the most beautiful places I've seen in my life 😍😍
@@divadavesoandrewson2731 Awww! That's so nice of you! ❤️ Thank you so much!
@@divadavesoandrewson2731 That's so kind of you to invite us, but we already left George Town 😭😭
@GamingTV Oh my!!!!! 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Was there 3 years ago. But only for one day. Could use more. A week perhaps?
Renata Pereira I like your vlogs. Thanks for sharing. What program do you use to edit your footage? Your editing is great :)
I'm so glad that TH-cam recommended this video to me! As a temple enthusiast, Kek Lok Si is my favourite Buddhist temple. This was a really stunning and well-put vlog and watching the lights get turned on was amazing. Thank you Renata!
You are most welcome. Any temples you recommend we should visit?
@@RenataPereiraTV Hi Renata! If you do visit Malaysia again in the future, you should visit some amazing cave temples in Ipoh. More specifically, limestone caves....there are a lot. Perak Cave is the most famous one amongst them!
Thank you for the suggestion👍😀
I live in Penang. I know the special feeling watching this video. I am so proud.
Memek Junior That’s wonderful! ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for letting me know 😍🤗
I miss the street foods from passar chowrasta near komtar tower- so yummy ♥️😋♥️
Very huge and impressive. It's great to see different religion and ethnicity live side by side in peace and in harmony. That is what this world need everywhere.
This is Malaysia.. Thats why we said Malaysia as a truly asia..
I agree👍😀🙏
So cool
WOW this video was so beautifully shot!! You've definitely made me want to visit this temple, it looks gorgeous! 😻 Also I love how goofy you and Gordon are together, it's so adorable!! Haha 😸
Thank you very much we appreciate your support👍😀

Thanks Renata for bringing it to TH-cam. Seriously, I’m a Malaysian who never been to this place at night.😂 but I guess i can be forgiven because I’m living in the south part. So yeah... thanks for shooting and open my mind haha.. the shooting and visual effect is so awesome!!

This temple seems to be a must visit in Malaysia! So glad I found this beautiful video, because I hope to go to Malaysia very soon when all restrictions are lifted.

Thank you very much! 😊 I appreciate your support
Hiya. How do you not have 200k subscribers? Your vlogs are so full of imagery and so professional and yet there are so-called travel vloggers that basically only show plates of food with 4 times the number of subs you have. Unbelievable! All the best to you.
Andy U Hi Andy! Wow, I feel honored! ❤️ Hopefully one day I’ll get there 🤗😊😉
Yes. This channel deserve more subscriber!

Malaysia Truly Asia

Another well put together vlog Renata, I'm looking forward to visiting Kek Lok Si in the evening now that I've watched your video😂 ,and as usual, Gordon is such a funny guy!
Yes, he is 😂😂😂. Hope you have a wonderful time!
Wow...the temple is very nice... during the day and at night.
I remember back in the 80's (the last time I was in Penang) the temple wasn't as huge and magnificent as it is today.
azzura mustapha How interesting! So imagine in another 30 years!?
Plan to visit this temple next year. Great video!
Thank you
I think this is the video which showed us your capacity of filming and editing.. great shots capture in the video... The cooling and soothing ambience of the temple also could be the reason whey this video was so so soothing... Awesome work Renata and Gordon...
Dharaneesh Prasad thank you very much for your positive contributions. They inspire us to continue on. Thks again!
Thank you Renata for posting this interesting video. I'm planning to visit Penang soon n it will be my very first visit there. Your video is very helpful as always. Much love from Indonesia💖🌹

Thk u and thks for watching!😃

Buddhism Temple awesome ❤️
Very cool to visit. Thanks for watching
That Was very impressive !
Thank you Africo!😃
I am Indian buudhist welcome India I love buudhijam god bless you
Thank you. We are looking at India to visit...when safe
I went Keh Lok si during Chinese New year festival this year- so beautiful and my soul felt really peace while traveling there! George town is simply amazing- will be waiting for your video about Penang Hill♥️
Great time to visit. Thanks for watching
Thanks for all the inspiration
Your welcome and thanks for watching!😀
I can't believe how this place is not jam-packed with tourists.
Isn't weird the Buddhist Temple too much lamps like that ?
Chinese New Year had just passed so we were after the crowd. Made it pleasurable for us so we don't have to fight for filming spot. YEs lots of lamps a true unique scene. Thanks for watching
Renata: The city of Penang, Malaysia is just a remarkable city with many great Statues, Monuments & Temples. I really LOVE watching this great Southeast Asian city @ home in 2022!
Gordon really loved and wants to return to feast at the outdoor market for a week. HAHA
Awesome.my next trip will be Penang . thank you for your so so beautiful video.i like your video effect and talk speed etc.
Thank you very much I appreciate.👍😀
Wow! Beautiful!

Amazing
Thank you
Your Uncle is Good... Follow u every where
Hello, Renata. My wife and I are a few weeks away from our trip to Asia for the first time. Going to Singapore 4 nights, Kuala Lumpur - 3, Bangkok 3 and Phuket - 4. Thank you so much for your videos and all the info, Greg
Aahh man, I wish we had covered Phuket for you! Enjoy your trip, eat well and take lots of photos/videos! 😃😃
Om mani padme Hun
Very beautiful Monestary
Thanks for sharing
Thanks to you for watching 😊😊😊. All the best!
Too bad you did not visit the top part of the temple since it offers splendid views too. The lift up will cost you some money (especially if you buy a 2-way ticket) & I would recommend a short walk/climb if you are able to.
You also missed a lower part of the temple where there is a (fairly) new tortoise pond, but no real temples. Hence the whole temple complex can & should be explored by foot for those that are able to.
Really hoped you had an amazing experience in Penang. Do come back in the future & thanks for putting up these vlogs.
So sweet
❤️❤️
Love it..😍
Thk😃 u!
😭 when i went to Malaysia to attend my first MUN last aug 25-28 2019 90% of my stipend plus my reserve all went to grab but i enjoyed my trip still very interesting country 😁
New subscriber here🇵🇭
Thank you. Well worth the visit...we do want to return
Informative
Thanks for watching
there is a dam on top of Kek Lok Si temple, very beautiful place, u can walk one round inside the dam, dam close around 7pm, from there you can see entire georgetown, it is a place where all penang ppl carry out their excercise, there are few route to there, the esier is using the same road that take you to kek lok si temple, just follow the road, u can either walk or take car up there
Thank you for the tips and iinformation....we really appreciate it!😃
Best Wishes from DUBAI.
Thank you! All the best to you!

Thank you pure genuine. 😀
Ciao Renata! Un altro bellissimo video per un luogo veramente affascinante!! Sono appena tornato da un lungo viaggio in Perù.......un paese veramente fantastico! A Lima sono andato al bar Ayahuasca nel Barranco che tu hai fatto vedere in uno dei tuoi video......volevo ringraziarti perché è un bel posto e ci ho trascorso una bella serata! Ciao da Max
Ciao Max... in ritardo nella risposta. Sono così felice che tu abbia avuto modo di visitare e spero che tu abbia mangiato dell'ottimo cibo peruviano. Il fatto che le persone controllino i suggerimenti che do mi motiva a filmare di più. Stiamo uscendo dal virus qui negli Stati Uniti, quindi lo stiamo riprendendo. Grazie per aver guardato
My support is yours madam and sir
Thank you very much. We appreciate it
Come to Pahang 🙋🏻♀️
Thanks
Thank you!
You should try visiting kechara forest retreat if you haven't! They are the biggest tibetan temple in malaysia and there also a organisation of tsem rinpoche!
You must visit melaka....... History town of malaysia...... And next Johor and terengganu...... Terengganu have nice beach .... Nice beautiful island

Hi Renata. Im a penangite and ur newly sub haha. The highest spot u've missed is the lady god temple and it is the most important part of the whole kek lok si temple. U should've took the cable car from the pagoda up there. Its open at night too. By the way nice vid and im glad u like penang
Alex Leong 😭😭😭😭 Really? We asked around and they told us the only way to get there was walking... And as we were already in the pagoda we decided using the time to do the time-lapse video instead 😕😕. But I guess that day it might have been closed, as it was not lit like everywhere else...
@@RenataPereiraTV dear, you need to take an inclined lift to go to the top! It's quite difficult walking there. But you're so lucky to enjoy the evening lights- isn't it magical like heaven?♥️
Very magical. Thanks for watching
Olá, ou boa noite, obrigado novamente por este vídeo iluminado. você faz poucos vídeos, mas eles são superiores aos outros vlogs. Portanto, coragem para todos vocês e para o próximo destino. If you Respond write in english because i cant translate comments in portuges please.
Sultan97400 Thank you sooo much! I really appreciate your comments in Portuguese, that’s so kind and so thoughtful ❤️😍. Yes, I’m trying to find a way to start editing 2 videos per week, trying to get Gordon to learn and help in the editing 😂😂. All the best!

The temple is amazing. Is it light up if we came in the other month? Or it is only near chinese new year
I believe only during Chinese New Year and maybe the only time it is open at night. Any confirmations?

btw your editing and video quality also have a very good quality, i just hope that i can make video like you
