About Sri Poyyatha Vinayagar Moorthi Temple
Built in 1781 by Thaivanayagam Chitty, leader of the Chitty community, on land granted by the Dutch, this is the oldest Hindu temple still standing in Malaysia. It is dedicated to Vinayagar (Ganesha), and a second altar honours Lord Muruga.
The Chitty are Tamil-descended Peranakans, and the temple is one of the few Chitty temples in the country. Look for Dutch-period details in the entrance, columns and roof tiles.
