Lin San Temple
Lin San Temple is a fully air-conditioned Buddhist temple offering Freehold columbarium niches and ancestral tablets. Spanning three storeys, it provides a serene space for prayer, reflection, and remembrance.
The Origin of Lin San Temple
Lin San Temple was established by Hakka Shifu Ruixiang from Guangdong. After his passing in the 1960s, Venerable Seang Heng and Mingzhen Shifu took over, with Venerable Seang Heng leading the temple’s reconstruction in 1973.
Under Venerable Seang Heng’s guidance, the temple flourished, drawing many worshippers and hosting Buddhist lessons led by visiting monks. Lin San Temple is dedicated to charity as well, actively supporting children’s education, elderly care, and orphanages.
The Reconstruction of Lin San Temple
In 2003, Lin San Temple was demolished for safety reasons due to surrounding construction affecting its foundation. Despite funding challenges and delays, rebuilding the temple remained Venerable Seang Heng’s heartfelt wish. In December 2020, the reconstruction of Lin San Temple was finally completed.
Lin San Temple building and Layout
Lin San Temple has been thoughtfully reconstructed with full air-conditioning, offering families and friends a serene space to honour their loved ones. The three-storey temple features a grand main hall on the first and second floors, complete with soaring ceilings.
The third floor is reserved for future expansions to accommodate columbarium niches and ancestral tablets. Visitors are greeted by a two-storey-tall, elegant Buddha statue in the main hall, creating a tranquil and welcoming atmosphere.
Behind the Buddha statue, the space is divided into three sub-halls: Dynasty 1, Dynasty 2, and Dynasty 3. Dynasty 1 is reserved for future development, while Dynasty 2 houses ancestral tablets. Dynasty 3 serves as a home for columbarium niches, ensuring a dignified resting place for the departed.
