The Khoo Kongsi Temple is a large Chinese clan house with elaborate and highly ornamented architecture, a mark of the dominant presence of the Chinese in Penang in Malaysia.. The famous Khoo Kongsi is the grandest clan temple in the country. It is also one of the city’s major historic attractions. The clan temple has retained its authentic historic setting, which includes an association building, a traditional theatre and the late 19th century row houses for clan members, all clustered around a granite-paved square. It is located in Cannon Square in the heart of the oldest part of the city of George Town, in the midst of narrow, winding lanes and quaint-looking pre-war houses exuding a palpable old world charm.
