    You might also want to check the small wooden altar that dates to the 1700s; it still holds a handful of prayer beads and sits right next to the main shrine. If you’re aiming to see the original 1701 layout, ask a local guide to show you the older prayer hall that predates the 1950s renovation. After that, a quick coffee at The Elgin Mount Pandim Pelling gives you a nice break before heading back to Yuksom.
