Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Temple

Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Temple is the largest religious complex in Singapore and among the largest in South-East Asia. That day we were met with very little breeze and battled heavy heat. I tried to remain as balanced as possible and thought of cool thoughts, but had to change shirts in the midst of our tour.

Enjoying the shade and beautiful stairs in back.

Walking around in his undershirt, after he gave me the shirt off his back.

Buddha Tooth Relic Temple

The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple is located in Chinatown and dedicated to the "The Compassionate One" (Maitreya Buddha). We only had the chance to walk through the first floor, but there was plenty things to see.

The first room we visited is called the Hundred Dragons Hall or Maitreya Hall.






The Hundred Dragons Hall led into the Universal Wisdom Hall - Avalokitesvara Hall.




Ready to present my offering.
