 The Dhammikarama Burmese Temple was founded way back in on the 1st August 1803. The 200 plus years old temple was formerly called "Nandy Moloh Burmese temple". According to temple's record, the land was purchased by a Burmese, Nonya Betong from a British named George Layton for 390 Spanish dollar with official permission granted by Lt Governor Prince of Wales Island, George Leith Baronet. After receiving the land grant title, Nonya Betong donated the land for the construction of Dhammikarama temple. (Source: Dhammikarama Burmese Temple in Penang)

IMO this would have been better with just the 3 statues in it only...tightly cropped...your lighting is excellent I will say...just the people are distracting to me
