Cundhi Gong 準提宫

About

This was founded in 1928 for the worship of the 18-arm Cundhi Bodhisattva.

The Building

It is a purpose-built temple built in the Nanyang style, which is a hybrid between Chinese and shophouse architecture. On the roof ridge, cut porcelain pieces are used to form dragons, phoenixes, birds, and flowers. The timber trusses over the five-foot way feature traditional paintings and its exterior walls are adorned with hand-painted tiles.
