Buddhist Mission


I took this photo from the bus. It's a Buddhist mission in Singapore. The background is void of high rise buildings which is quite unusual. I have not visited it but we pass this way quite often. It looks so serene, away from the hustle and bustle of the traffic.

According to a 2010 population census, 33% of the resident population in Singapore (age 15 years and above) are Buddhists; 11% Taoists; 18% Christians; 15% Muslims; 5% Hindus; 17% no religious affliation. Total population in Singapore is 5.08 million. Population density is approximately 7000 per sq km.
