Beautiful day

Recently I was too shacked and did not find time to update my blog. Finally took a break and so I decided to pay a visit to the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple. Two years ago, Huiting and I went to the fund raising for the building construction. When the temple was finally built and setup, we did not get a chance to meet up for viewing the majestic temple. On tuesday which was on the mooncake festival itself, I made a trip down to south bridge road where the temple is located at. Upon arrival, I was so fascinated by the architecture. From what i read about and understand from, the interiors and statuary are inspired by the Tang Dynasty, an era where Buddhism flourished in China in a golden age of artistic and cultural vibrancy. If you have not seen this unique place of worship, then you ought to visit this hotspot of Singapore. Anyway it's just a ten minute walk from chinatown mrt. Exit onto people's park, cross the bridge and land on pagoda street. Proceed to temple street and then to smith street, from there make a left turn and walk all the way into the lane.
