About this state

Guan Yin Ting Dou Mu Gong in Butterworth's Sin Pa area is another major Dou Mu and Nine Emperor Gods complex, deliberately distinct from Tow Boo Kong on Raja Uda. Yellow halls, a pagoda silhouette and carved courtyards with fish ponds give it a bright, photogenic presence on the mainland skyline and a ceremonial atmosphere that deepens during festival weeks. Temple-hoppers compare the two Butterworth shrines for architecture and festival energy—here the yellow palette and pagoda make orientation easy. Arrive with modest dress, walk the courtyards slowly, and you will understand why locals treat Sin Pa and Raja Uda as sister yet separate pilgrimage addresses.
