Lonely Planet review

Take a few hours to explore the fascinating Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Monastery, Singapore's largest. 'Don't speak unless it improves the silence' is the creed here, the resultant quiet a surreal counterpart to dragon-topped pagodas, shrines, plazas and lawns linked by Escher-like staircases. The Pagoda of 10,000 Buddhas' golden stupa is lined with 9999 Buddha images - the 10,000th is the big boy inside.
