A frog shaped rock ʕ̡̢̡*✪௰✪ૢʔ̢̡̢
This frog can be found at Chan See Shu Yuen Temple a.k.a. Chan Family Library in Kuala Lumpur. The temple is a few minutes walking distance from Petaling Street Chinatown a.k.a. Chee Cheong Kai (茨廠街) in Malaysia. The frog is so special that it caught my attention the moment i entered the temple. There are also other Chinese historical artifacts and altars with god statues for visitors to pray.
Chan See Shu Yuen Temple
The 4 chinese word (院書氏陳) written on top of the door is read from right to left as Chan See Shu Yuen (陳氏書院) meaning The Chan Family Library. The olden days traditional Chinese words were written from right to left so I've to read it from right to left. It is a library built by the ancestor of Chan (陳) family. Aside being a library for people to study and pray, the library was once used as a place to accommodate and help China immigrants who carries the surname Chan (陳)
