Kun Iam Temple Travel Guide

Brief Introduction
Kun Iam Temple was built in the 1400s in order to honour the goddess of mercy. It is the oldest temple in Macao.

Located on Avenida do Coronel Mesquita, Kun Iam Temple has three main halls including the Hall of Sakyamuni, the Longevity Hall, and Kum Iam Hall. Each contains fairly rich decoration and an impressive collection of wall paintings, pictures, and scrolls.

The temple also houses some beautiful statues and Buddha images. At the back of Kun Iam temple, there are terraced gardens and the first Sino-American treaty (Wong Ha Treaty) signed in 1844 on one of the stone tablets here.
