Khoo Kongsi Temple - 36 Celestial Guardians









These images are part of the “36 Celestial Guardians” mural painted on two walls of the Khoo Kongsi clan association temple in the city of Georgetown, Penang Malaysia.

The temple is elaborately embellished with colorful carvings and paintings. Yet these murals have a restraint and directness similar to classical Chinese calligraphy.
