Fu Lu Shou Complex

A one-of-a-kind building, Fu Lu Shou Complex blurs the line between mall and temple. In this shopping centre, enlightenment comes with a price tag, a Buddhist and Daoist-themed gift shop on steroids. 

Located in the heart of Bugis, the mall provides an eclectic mix of souvenirs, trinkets, ingredients, antiques and religious services that specialize in Feng Shui and astrology. It defies the typical shopping center blueprint, merging Buddhist and Daoist spirituality with retail in a way few places, especially in Singapore, dare to do.

Constructed in 1983, the complex contains a total of 140 retail units dedicated to religious paraphernalia. Shrines to Daoist and Buddhist deities are a common sight inside the shops, almost as if welcoming visitors to pray, purchase, or do both.

Its name comes from the three Lucky Gods of Daoism, Fu, Lu and Shou, who represent Good Fortune, Prosperity and Longevity. All three gods are depicted in a mural on the side of the complex, facing Rochor Road.
