Dou Mu Gong-Kuala Lipis / 斗母宮-瓜拉立卑.
Location:- Kuala Lipis, Pahang / 瓜拉立卑, 彭亨.
This temple is officially open to public in 1994. With a large hall and stage in front for it celebration and festival purposes. I was told that this is the only Dou Mu Gong in Kuala Lipis and this temple is one of the only two Dou Mu Gong currently in the state of Pahang. The other was said to be in Kuantan. Like all Dou Mu Gong, the temple will host it’s Nine Emperor God / Jiu Huang Da Di / 九皇大帝 celebration/festival on every first to ninth day on the nine month of the chinese lunar calendar. A large Na To Gong / 嗱督公 shrine is also build next to this temple.
On the inside, they have three altar. The center altar is devoted to Dou Mu Yuan Jun / 斗母元君. Sitting elegantly on her right is lord Guan Di / 關帝 and on her left is the black face Fa Zhu Gong /法主公. There is a room right behind this center altar that is forbidden to outsiders, probably this is the room where they house the temples relics or it could be an altar for it’s Nine Emperor God / Jiu Huang Da Di / 九皇大帝.
The left altar is devoted to Goddess Guan Yin / Guan Yin Pu Sa / 觀音菩薩. While the altar on the right has a few deities namely from left to right, Fu De Zheng Shen / 福德正神 (aka Da Bo Gong / 大伯公), Tian Du Yuan Shuai / 田都元帥 (General Tian Du), Xuan Tian Shang Ti / 玄天上帝, Qi Tian Da Sheng / 齊天大聖 ( Monkey God) and Bao Sheng Da Di / 保生大帝.
