Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 22, 2011 Staff Share Posted August 22, 2011 Yu Huang Gong, Temple of Heavenly Jade Emperor (the former Keng Teck Whay Building), 150 Telok Ayer Street A milestone was marked in Singapore's heritage history on 31 March 2010; Taoist Mission (Singapore) became the new owner of the "Keng Teck Whay" a Singapore's National Heritage Monument situated at 150 Telok Ayer Street amidst the heart of the financial district. The 170 year old building is now a dilapidated state and is desperately in need of restoration and conservation. The building's architectural style and social heirtage is a living testament to the founding members' efforts and contributions during Singapore's early settlement since 1831.The attached photos shows specific areas that require major restorations (in fact) the entire site!:-1. Entrance Gate2. Hall of the Three Heavenly Officials3. Heavenly Jade Emperor Pavillion4. Qing De Tang (Keng Teck Ancestor Hall) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
