★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Place is far from other attractions, not worth driving all the way out here to this place. And even have to pay just to park by the road side. This place is over commercialized, more like snake farm than temple: snakes are bred, not natural visitors of the temple. Fake snake decor around temple and also overpriced photo taking.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Free to visit, this is the only Temple I've visited which breeds and displays snakes. There is literally a "Pit of Vipers" behind the Temple with 5 foot walls to contain the snakes which seem to like lying on the tree branches in shady moist areas. The Temple itself is quite small and with a backdrop of a large modern office block. If you walk down the same road you will see the other three faiths, Islam, Hindu and Christian all represented with places of worship.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Parked at a parking lot in front of the temple, but when we are about to leave someone from the food hawker come out and ask us to pay RM2 for the parking saying that this is private property parking. That's a very small sign board and they didn't mentioned it's RM2.
Very unsatisfied, they thought we are only visitor so charge also never mind?
Anyways the temple is nice

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I hope the temple management would employ well mannered, educated and polite people in the organization in order to maintain a respectable reputation that the temple had in the past. I recently made a call to Snake temple to inquire about the temple opening hours as it could be affected due to current COVID situation, but the lady who answered the call was extremely rude and impolite with her reply. She was so harsh by replying "Open office hours la, what else?! Why you all keep disturbing me ha?" and slammed the phone while I was talking to her. That rude lady who answered the call didn't have the courtesy to introduce herself. Many people would have made calls to inquire about the temple opening hours that may be affected due to COVID situation. Public make calls to inquire about the timing because we are clearly interested to pay visit to the temple, not because we are too free to make calls. I hope the management will do something about this, thanks.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An interesting temple to visit. You can see some snakes but they are mostly hidden in a breeding area.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Clean temple, there's some snakes in the main hall, you're not allowed to burn incense there as the smoke will irritate them. There's two huge python that you're allowed to hold them for photos, you'll need to pay of course. There's a breeding area with ciku trees that has quite many snakes.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Free entrance apart from the parking fee Rm3, a very small but well maintained temple, there were snakes on the alter and in the garden at the back where the washroom is (make sure you don't miss that).
There's also a huge python for photo taking (small fee) if you're keen, overall quite an enjoyable and interesting place to visit!
