Calling for volunteer videocam hobbyists. I am beginning to realise that there are many age-old ceremonies that come along with the various old temples in Singapore. This year, I am hoping to include some live footages of interesting ceremonies of the various dialect groups on this weblog. Those of you who would like to use your spare time documenting rituals and ceremonies of the various dialect groups in Singapore, please don’t hesitate to send me an email. Thanks.

Thank you for visiting this blog on the History and Architecture of Chinese Temples in Singapore. I have uploaded pictures of about 48 historic Chinese temples & buildings on this blog todate. Please go to the various monthly archives to see the entire collection. For a list of old chinese architecture to visit in Singapore, go to chapter 3 on your right. If you have any other juicy info about any temples, please leave your data on the comments at the end of each article. I update these pages whenever I have the time, so do drop by once in a while to see updates. Happy templing !

Wow, great works you guys have here! I have been interested in finding out more about the history and heritage of Southeast Asian Chinese and your site offers very good write-ups and pictures.
Just a few days ago, I had dinner with an octogenarian and she is a descendant of Tan Yeok Nee. It was interesting to hear her talk about her family.
