Ang Chee Sia Ong Temple

Ang Chee Sia Ong Temple is a Chinese temple in Clementi with multi-tiered roofs decorated with ornate carvings and traditional architectural details. The building features elaborate decorative elements characteristic of classical temple design throughout its structure.

The temple began in 1918 when incense ashes from the Green Dragon Temple in Chaozhou, Guangdong, were brought to Singapore by Wang Dong Qing. It moved from its original Pasir Panjang location to its current site in 1997.

This temple brings together three belief systems: Taoism, Mahayana Buddhism, and Confucianism in shared worship spaces. Visitors can observe daily rituals and ceremonial practices as they unfold naturally within the halls.

The temple welcomes visitors daily for prayers, offerings, and participation in traditional ceremonies in a welcoming setting. It helps to be aware that respectful behavior is expected when entering, and visitors should be mindful not to disturb those actively worshipping.

The main hall centers on the Green Dragon, a figure rooted in the incense ashes that established the temple's spiritual foundation. This connection to the temple's earliest origins gives the daily worship a deeper historical resonance.
