In other words, the mightiest & over riding deity there is god of fortune.

Last time the place was further in just besides the sea.. Quite a long way walk for visitors wanting to visit the temple..

Tame cute stray dogs would roam around the temple and on the beach just behind the temple.. 4D punters would be inside the temple for some inspirations..

Can see old pics of some Pappy Ministers, MPs attending temple dinners.. Then few years ago, they shifted to the present location just besides JTC corporation..

Yes.. the temple very multi racial one..

The 4D punters would crowd around this old looking granite stone and burn incense around it.. Some temple devotees believe that if you're lucky you can see glimpses of 4 numbers being shown on the big stone..

LOL.. For luck, I keep a look out for plate Nos of cars involved in accidents..

Last time I go there to feed the cute stray puppies that used to loiter around the beach behind the temple.. To go to the beach, I need to walk thru the temple.. Sometimes will do some fishing over there with my Kakis.. BTW, I'm very sure those stray puppies are cuter than you..

The Loyang Tua Pek Kong Temple, off Loyang Way, was established in the 1980s. The temple owes its existence to a group of friends, who on finding figurines of different religions abandoned on a beach, brought them together and housed them under a unique mixed-religion temple. The Loyang Tua Pek Kong Temple has Buddhist, Hindu and Taoist deities and a Muslim Kramat (shrine) within its premises



Description

In the 1980s a group of fishing buddies, including Paul Tan and Huang Zhong Ting, stumbled across Buddhist, Hindu and Taoist statues strewn across the beach at the end of the Loyang Industrial Area. They built a small hut made of bricks and zinc sheets to house the figurines. This humble construction served as a makeshift temple. It also included a Kramat to honour a holy Muslim man. It is believed that a sign was received by some people to build the holy kramat here. Soon, scores of people, mainly those working in the Loyang Industrial Area, were visiting the temple. Miraculous powers were attributed to the temple as devotees claimed that their prayers for prosperity and wealth were never denied. Unfortunately however, in 1996, the hut was razed to the ground by a fire. The Taoist statue of Tua Pek Kong, the God of Prosperity, was the only one that survived and escaped from the fire unscathed. New premises to house the deities and the kramat had to be built. Through public donations that poured in, a new temple complex was built over a 1,400 sq m area at the same site. The temple was named after the Prosperity God, Tua Pek Kong the statue which miraculously escaped from the fire.

The temple is still run by public donations. The number of visitors to the temple is around 20,000 per month despite the fact that bus services are limited to weekdays and the last bus stop is a half an hour walk away. The temple still accepts statues of deities and any devotee can adopt or take a figurine of a deity for free after offering a prayer. The temple complex is open 24 hours a day and it has become a tourist attraction in the recent years. One of the temple's claims to fame is the presence of a 2 m tall statue of the Hindu God Ganesha, which is said to be the tallest Ganesha statue in any temple in India or Singapore. Another attraction here is the lighting of strings of non-hazardous firecrackers.

In June 2003 the lease on the land on which the temple is situated expired. The temple authorities therefore procured a new site close to the present temple. A new temple is expected to be constructed at this new site in a few years' time. Until then, the temple is expected to remain at its current location with a lease extension being granted for the land on which it is situated.
