Jin Long Si Temple

Jin Long Si Temple is a Buddhist sanctuary in Hougang featuring multiple Buddha statues housed within structures of timber and metal roofing. The grounds contain distinct areas for prayer and ceremonial activities.

The temple was founded in 1941 through donations from Chinese merchants who erected a simple thatched structure. It developed over time into a larger religious complex.

The temple blends Buddhist, Taoist, and Confucian teachings, which you can observe during its daily ceremonies and meditation sessions that draw many people.

Visitors can join daily prayer sessions and receive vegetarian meals during regular opening hours. The grounds are generally easy to navigate and accessible to people with different mobility levels.

The temple once housed a massive Bodhi tree from Sri Lanka before it was relocated in an important transition. This event marked a turning point in the site's physical identity.
