Lian Shan Shuang Lin Monastery
About this place
In 1898, on his way back to China from Burma, Master Xian Hui and others stopped by Singapore and was invited by Low Kim Pong to build a monastery on 38 acres of land. Accepting the generous land offer, they embarked on a 11-year journey to build Shuanglin Monastery, which eventually became one of the most magnificent forest monasteries in Singapore.
