Foundations of thermodynamics in special theory of relativity are considered. We argue that from the phenomenological point of view the correct relativistic transformations of heat and absolute temperature are given by the formulae proposed by H. Ott, H. Arzeli\`{e}s and C. M\oller. It is shown that the same transformation rules can be also found from the relativistic Gibbs distribution for ideal gas. This distribution has been recently verified by the computer simulations. Phenomenological and statistical thermometers in relativistic thermodynamics are analysed.
