Wat Ananda Metyarama, Thai Buddhist temple in Kampong Tiong Bahru, Singapore

The temple complex incorporates both golden stupas and ornate Thai architectural elements alongside local Singaporean design features on Jalan Bukit Merah.

Established in 1920 by Venerable Luang Phor Hong Dhammaratano, the temple moved from its original location on Silat Road to its current position.

The main shrine building displays hand-painted murals depicting Singapore life scenes alongside a central golden Buddha statue within its halls.

The temple facilities include meditation halls, conference rooms, dining areas, classrooms, and a cultural center for community activities.

During significant ceremonies, the temple adapts Thai traditions to local conditions, using inflatable pools for the Loy Krathong floating ritual.
