The Temple built during the era of the Second White Rajah of Sarawak, Sir Charles Brooke in the 1860’s by Tea Plantation workers from South India, is suppose to be the only abode of “Sri Maha Mariamman” in South East Asia, which is made of belian timber(iron wood), located on a 1,000 feet height on a mountain slope with pyramid shaped gopuram. The distant of the Temple is about 3 km from the foot of the mountain and would take an hour to reach. One who visit the Temple would experience the cool and congenial atmosphere at the upper slopes of the mountain, panoramic view of the Matang plains and other landscape below and the 1800 Century Craftsmanship on belian timber which houses the “Sri Maha Mariamman Deity”.
