Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum


This glittering mega temple dedicated to Maiteraya Buddha boasts Asia's largest stupa, mad from 420 kg of pure gold decorated with 201 rubies and encircled by 35 statues of Buddha. The public can catch a glimpse of the breathtaking interior of the inner chamber every day at 4:30 am, 10:30 am, and 7:30 pm, when the brocade curtain is raised during ceremonies conducted by resident monks.

Located in Chinatown.
