Next, we head on to Pattani Province in the southern region of Thailand as we visit the Chinese temple with a very strong incense at the Leng Chu Kiang Shrine.
The Lim Ko Niao Goddess (Chao Mae Lim Ko Niao) resides in the Leng Chu Kiang Shrine and is widely respected by the Chinese residents of Pattani. The shrine houses a wooden statue of the goddess and sculptures of other Chinese religious figures. Legend says Lim Ko Niao was a Chinese girl who came to what was then Siam, looking for her brother Lim To Khiam, who had married the daughter of the Pattani governor and had converted to Islam. When she could not find her brother, she felt so disappointed at failing in her mission that she hung herself from a cashew nut tree. When her brother heard of her suicide, he buried her at the site on which the Pattani people later built the shrine to commemorate her dedication to family.
On the day of the 3rd lunar month every year, there is the colorful procession carrying the goddess’ sculpture along several roads in town, walking on fire in front of the shrine, and swimming across the River. The city welcomes numerous worshippers every year.
The deities residing in the Leng Chu Kiang Shrine are prominent and renowned to be very responsive, prompting many tourists from all across the region to pay her a visit. It is not uncommon to find people from Singapore, Malaysia, China, Hong Kong and even Taiwan visiting the Leng Chu Kiang Shrine even during the off-season.
