My husband and I paid a visit to Penang Snake Temple with a group of members from Penang Heritage Trust recently. We were there for an update on the restoration done on the building. As my husband and the members were busy doing that, I roamed around and captured snakes pictures and the iguana at snake farm.
Some of the snakes were camouflaged and blended in the environment they were resting on. They didn't move at all so I had a few scared moments. They won't bite unless you got 'itchy' hands and 'play' with them.
These snakes have beautiful colors and can be found resting on the dried tree branches in the temple.
See their triangle heads, they are vipers and very poisoness. It is safe to view them and be sure not to venture too close. Warning signs were posted at the temple to warn visitors not to touch them at all time.
You can see a few big snakes were resting on this tree. Actually there were also many baby snakes on the tree.
These small snakes were on the same tree as shown in above picture. You won't notice them unless you looked closer.
Here's another one. Looks like tree branches to me.
Another one. It is a baby snake.
Baby snakes.
Huge iguana at the snake farm which was at the side of the snake temple. This is the first time I can captured animal picture minus the cage. The camera I was using can zoomed pass the cage and focused on the iguana. I was happy to be able to capture it.
Look at its eye, isn't it beautiful?
