Welcome to Leong San See Temple

Leong San See Temple (“Dragon Mountain Temple” in Mandarin) is one of Singapore’s most ornate Buddhist temples. It was established by Reverend Chun Wu in 1917, who arrived in Singapore in 1913 with only an urn and a statue of Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy. The temple was initially named Leong San Lodge and consisted of a few huts where Reverend Chun took care of the sick, with the central hut housing the Goddess of Mercy.

As a non-profit organization registered under Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, our mission is to reach out to as many out there as possible to help them better understand on the causes and roots of all suffering, so that more will turn to the teachings of the Buddha to learn also about the cessation of sufferings (which is about how to end sufferings).

Leong San See Temple will continue offering aid to assist anyone in need regardless of race language or belief in accordance with the compassion as espoused and taught by the Buddha.

龙山寺是新加坡最华丽的佛教寺庙之一。由转武法师于1917年创立,他于1913年只带着一个骨灰盒和观音菩萨的雕像来到新加坡。该寺最初名为龙山屋,由几间小屋组成,转武法师在其中照顾病人,中央的小屋供奉着观音菩萨。

作为一家注册在文化、社区及青年部的非营利组织,我们的使命是尽可能向外界传达,帮助人们更好地理解所有痛苦的原因和根源,以便更多人转向佛陀的教诲,学习关于终止痛苦的方法(即如何结束痛苦)。龙山寺将继续提供帮助,协助任何有需要的人,无论种族、语言或信仰,都符合佛陀所倡导和教导的慈悲心。
