Buddha Tooth Relic Temple
Completed in 2007, this $62 million dollar complex is a popular tourist attraction in Singapore’s vibrant Chinatown.
That may seem like quite an investment to honor a fragment of tooth, but the tooth purportedly belongs to one of the most famous religious figures in history—the Buddha.
The temple claims that the tooth is a relic recovered in 1980 from a collapsed stupa in Myanmar, but little additional information is provided. Experts have called into question the authenticity of the tooth, saying that it is most likely “the tooth of a cow or water buffalo, but definitely not a human.AsiaBuddha Tooth Relic TempleBuddhismCamerasChinatownMichael WalkerMichael Walker PhotosPlacesReligionSingaporeSony A7RiiSoutheast Asiamichaelwalkerphotoswww.michaelwalkerphotos.com
