It's a small temple converted into a musuem filled with small figurines depicting life in Singapore decades ago. It's recommended for a visit if you're around the area!

Written in kanji, it means Fukutoku Shrine. According to the description, it is an old Chinese temple built by Hakka and Cantonese immigrants in the 1820s, and turned into a museum. Behind the entrance, where there are statues and models, is the hotel lobby.

T. D. R.

It's not the real Fude Temple, it can only be regarded as a relic, and it will be turned into a shopping mall later.

B. L.

Only the main entrance retains the ancestral style, and the back is already a restaurant and bar area.

Fuk Fok Temple was originally a temple dedicated to Tua Pek Kong, a god believed by Confucian and Taoist believers. Fok Tak Shrine was funded by Cantonese and Hakka immigrants between 1820 and 1824. Many Chinese immigrants came here to worship Tua Pek Gong and thank the gods for protecting their safe arrival in Singapore. As donations from believers increased dramatically, Fuk Tak Temple was rebuilt with bricks and stones in 1825, and subsequently underwent several rounds of renovations. The major renovation in 1869 was funded by Cheang Hong Lim, a leader of the Hokkien community. Later, Fok Fu Temple became the headquarters of the Cantonese and Hakka communities, and even played the role of a welfare association and became a place to resolve disputes. But by the 1990s, Fuk Tuk Temple, which had a rich and colorful history, began to decline and the temple fell into serious disrepair. Later, Fude Temple was After the government took over, the altar inside was moved to a temple in Geylang. The original site of Fuk Fook Temple was built by people from China and Malaysia It was restored by skilled craftsmen and turned into a museum in 1998. Today's Fuk Tuk Temple is surrounded by tall buildings. Fortunately, there is a model in the museum depicting the scene around Fok Tuk Temple in the early years, allowing visitors to understand Telok Ayer Street at that time
