The temple was established in 1918 when the ash of the joss sticks of the original Green Dragon Temple at Han River, Chaozhou, Guangdong, China is brought to Singapore by Wang Dong Qing and worshipped at his home.[1]

In 1930, a temple was built at Pasir Panjang's 7th Milestone to properly worship Ang Chee Sia Ong.[1] The area was later slated for redevelopment and the temple moved to West Coast Drive. The temple was consecrated in 1997.[1]
