Kwan Im Thong Hood Cho Temple, Buddhist temple in Rochor, Singapore.

The temple spans 1500 square meters and features traditional Chinese architecture with detailed carvings, bright colors, and upturned roof corners at Waterloo Street.

The temple foundation dates to 1884 when Chen Liang Cheng donated land, followed by renovations in 1895 and a major expansion in 1980 costing 5 million dollars.

The temple centers on the worship of Cundi, a manifestation of Kuan Yin, along with Damo and Hua Tuo, with a Tathagata Buddha statue placed behind.

Visitors can access the temple daily from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM via Rochor MRT station on the Downtown Line or buses 147, 166, and 175.

The temple maintains a cross-worshipping practice with the neighboring Sri Krishnan Temple, demonstrating the religious diversity characteristic of Singapore's society.
