Enhance your spiritual well-being by spending some time meditating at the oldest monastery on the island.

Sit under the Bodhi Tree located in their beautiful garden or step inside to experience peace and to marvel at the magnificent bronze Buddha statue and the detailed Avalokitesvara statue.

Spend some time for your spiritual well-being as you step into the peaceful forest monastery in Singapore. The oldest of its kind on the island, Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Monastery is a place where you can practice gratitude and mindfulness as well as spend some time meditating in the quiet ambience of the temple or under the Bodhi Tree outdoors. The magnificent bronze Buddha statue and the detailed Avalokitesvara statue are absolutely stunning. The monastery also organizes activities like retreats, courses and talks on health, family and children as well as gives out free books on Buddhism.
