From the outside, the temple still looks like a traditional imperial Chinese building with its slanting bamboo roofs and red wooden beams. And the prized possession, the temple houses what is believed to be Buddha’s actual tooth which was found in 1980 from the wreckage of a collapsed stupa in Myanmar in 1980. The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple has since become one of Singapore’s most popular spiritual hubs for Buddhists due to housing Buddha’s left canine tooth. It now attracts over 3.6 million visitors from all religions annually looking to learn more about the history, art and culture of Buddhism.
