Thain Hock Keng Temple (Temple of Heavenly Happiness), Singapore. The older buildings in Chinatown are slowly being encroached by high rise buildings that are made necessary by Singapore's grown success and populations, yet limited building land. However this temple has survived since 1839-42 when it was built on an earlier site of Ma Chu Por (Tain Hou) for Chinese immigrants to play offer their thanks for a safe voyage.
