P	Peggy Tanaka on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is one temple to pray for wealth propensity and good business. Most important is that no unnecessary expenses loss eg medical expenses in short to hold the wealth in oneself. There is a lady where one gives a red packet she will do the prayers to the Tiger God to ensure no troublemakers but good benefactors Also on the temple left side is hua gong and hua MA. It is believed these two will help the children to be good and respectful to their parents
J	Jerry QUEK Cheng Pang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An old temple full of nostalgic feel located along Balestier Road.The temple has quite a long history.It was built in the 1800's.It is one of the three temples around Singapore that still has a Chinese Opera performing stage.The temple has a nostalgic and kampong feel if you have live in a kampong in the old days.The temple is very busy on the birthday of the main deity Tua Pek Kong and also during the Chinese New Year festive period.It is easy to locate and access as the temple is just by the main road ( Balestier Road ).It has a very small car park with only few parking lots.The temple is worth visiting even for tourist as it showcases how a traditional kampong style Chinese temple looks like, complete with a Chinese Opera Stage.

K	K. Lim on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ever went there to pray few years back. Meet a lady who help u pray to tiger god. Very attitude, unwillingly to help, a lot of sarcastic remarks and grumbling. After that still dare to tell me a customer before me also unhappy at her. Very angry but did not say anything as is praying and if i can, i rather pray my own than to ask her. Not sure if she's still there but i did not go back after that day anyway.
T	Tan Kimberly on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went to this template for the first time to bai tai sui. There was not clear signs or written instructions on how to pray. We had to ask numerous people and they were not friendly nor clear in the directions. The aunties were clearly annoyed when we asked them for directions and one of them initially even just told us to pray ourselves lol. It was another uncle working there who insisted that we queue up for the aunties to pray for us then we had some idea of the procedure. Otherwise, it wasnt a pleasant experience for newcomers.
