Yueh Hai Ching Temple, Chinese temple in Downtown Core, Singapore

The temple features two prayer halls: the Tian Hou Gong for Mazu worship and the Shang Di Gong for Xuan Tian Shang Di deity.

Built in 1826 by Lin Pan on the site of a former wooden shrine, the temple served as a place for Chinese sailors to pray for safe voyages.

The temple walls contain detailed ceramic mosaics using the jian nian technique, depicting scenes from Chinese mythology and traditional stories.

Located at 30B Philip Street in Singapore's business district, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM throughout the year.

Emperor Guangxu of Qing China presented the temple with a calligraphic scroll in 1899 to recognize its support for flood relief in Shandong.
