This Goddess of Mercy Temple is a spot for people to come and pay respects towards Guan Yin Niang Niang/娘娘, the Mandarin way of pronouncing "Goddess of Mercy"!

The temple is of significance to the Chinese in Singapore, and is believed to bring worshippers good luck after praying to the Kuan Yin (观世音菩萨), or Avalokiteśvara, the Goddess of Mercy. The temple is also involved in charity work, contributing to several health and educational organisations.
