About

Kek Look Seah Temple (Chinese: 極樂社; also called as Kek Lok Seah Temple) is a Chinese temple located in Taman Happy of Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia. The temple is known for its planchette divination and has a medical room where Chinese medicine is given – which is not common for many Buddhist temple. This persistently making it being mistakenly referred to many people as a Dejiao establishment despite it is a Buddhist temple of Mahāyāna branch.

Kek Look Seah literally means "Sukhāvatī Society" in the Hokkien (Minnan) language.
