Dhammikarama Burmese Temple

Burmese Buddhist temple across from Wat Chayamangkalaram

Dhammikarama Burmese Temple was founded in 1803 and is one of Penang's most distinctive Buddhist temples. White elephant statues guard the entrance, and the compound opens into a calm mix of shrines, a bodhi tree, a wishing pond, and bright Burmese decorative details.

It sits across the road from Wat Chayamangkalaram, so the two temples make an easy shared stop in Pulau Tikus. Remove your shoes before entering shrine halls and dress with the same modesty you would use in any working temple.
