 A special exposition of the Sacred Hair Relics of the Lord Buddha, received from Sri Gangaramaya Temple in Colombo, was held in Singapore.

The Sacred Relics were brought by Ven. Dr. Pallegama Rathanasara Thero to Singapore for the exposition at the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in Singapore to coincide with the Vesak Festival 2019. This was the first time those relics were exhibited overseas.

Actg. High Commissioner of Sri Lanka to Singapore O.L. Ameer Ajwad received the Sacred Hair Relics, and handed over to the Chief incumbent of Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in Chinatown, Singapore where this special exposition of the sacred hair relics was taken place.

The exposition was held from 19 - 21 May 2019 and attracted a large number of Buddhist devotees in Singapore and around the world.

The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in Singapore has been a key partner of Gangaramaya Temple in Colombo for most of its social projects carried out in Sri Lanka during the past few decades.
