Moey She Temple is one of the lesser known temples in the inner quarters of George Town. It is located along Penang Street, within the Little India district of the city. Moey She Temple is a clan temple for Chinese people holding the surname "Moey". It is a Cantonese-style clan temple that was built along Penang Street in 1905. Much of the facade is of granite. At the front gate is a pair of ceramic lions perched on the gate. The eaves on the roof are decorated with eaves board and supported by tall granite pillars with lantern beams across them.
On both sides of the front door of Moey She Temple are granite panels on which words of praise are inscribed. The roof is decorated with mystical beasts including the celestial fish and pearl. The temple is only one storeys high but the walls are built to a height of a two storey building. Inside the temple are wooden altars and other traditional Chinese furniture.

SBI
Ever want to build your own website? Do it the right way by using
Site Build It (SBI). It has all the tools and lessons necessary to help you create a successful website. Once you have built an SBI website, you can also use it to recommend SBI to others with an SBI Affiliate account. What I like most about SBI is that it gives you a whole month to try it out for free, and if you don't like it after a full month, you can seek a full refund. That way, you can see for yourself how SBI can really help you create a great website.
