The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple is a temple and museum located at Southbridge Road, just outside the heart of Chinatown where the street market is situated. Built in 2007, the temple comprises of four floors and on the ground floor there is a statue of Meitreya Buddha (the future Buddha). The 4th floor of the temple claims to hold a tooth relic of Buddha, discovered in 1980 in a collapsed stupa in Myanmar. Visitors are welcomed to visit the temple (9:00 am to 6:30 pm) but it was late when I arrived - better luck next time.
