Singapore Photo of the Day : Sri Mariamman Temple

November 24, 2015 by texasonthames

The Sri Mariamman Temple is the oldest Hindu temple in Singapore and was founded in 1827, eight years after the East India Company established a trading settlement in Singapore. Today it is a stone’s throw from Singapore’s Central Business District.

The rural South Indian mother goddess Mariamman is a protector against diseases.

Views in Singapore’s Chinatown are a mix of the old and the new.
