Singapore The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, Singapore.
The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum is a four-storey Buddhist temple and museum complex that rises up at the heart of the Chinatown district in Singapore. The temple is based on the Tang dynasty architectural style and built to house the tooth relic of the historical Buddha, which is claimed that was found in 1980 in a collapsed stupa in Myanmar. From outside the temple is grand, inside it is richly ornate and colorful, but the most significant feature of the temple is the two-meter tall solid gold stupa that weighs 420 kg located at the top floor, in the Sacred Light Hall. It is the Sacred Buddha Tooth Relic Chamber, which is the repository of the sacred Buddha tooth.
Photography Tips
Sunset shots only as you'll want to get the building lights for multi exposure shots into the night. Visiting at dawn is a complete waste of time as building lights are all off.
Superwide lenses only and watch for distortion so you have less time to correct it in post.
