Buddha Tooth Relic Temple

The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum (Singapore) (BTRTS) was founded in 2002 by Venerable Shi Fa Zhao. The Temple will be dedicated to the Maitreya Buddha, which means 'The Compassionate One', and also called 'The Future Buddha'.

The temple was built in the heart of Chinatown and houses some museums. More than 60,000 donors have given the temple $45 million and 270kg of gold. The gold was later melted and rebuilt into a 3.6m-high stupa to house the tooth relic.

Massage Chairs Promotion

This is a promotion of massage chairs by OSIM in a shopping mall. I was attracted by the unique designs put up by them.

Sky Watch-UFO


This is the day, I spotted a UFO above me.....lol. Does it look like a flying saucer?

It is actually part of the architectural design of the expo MRT station.

I am not standing at the correct angle in taking the whole station. You could find other photos to see the whole station from here.
Thanks to Tom for hosting Sky Watch. For other sky watchers, you can go to Tom's skywatch blog.
