Uncover fascinating attractions in Singapore's Little India
Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple
Situated at the heart of Serangoon Road in Little India, Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple stands as one of Singapore's oldest temples. Built in 1855 by Tamil craftsmen, the temple is dedicated to the goddess Kali – the Goddess of Strength. During World War II, amidst air raids, many sought refuge within its sacred walls, emerging unscathed from the bombings.
In the 1980s, the temple underwent renovations, adding a distinctive gateway tower adorned with 8 main domes and numerous smaller ones, transforming it into one of Singapore's most majestic landmarks.
Here, travelers can find bargain electronics and clothing as well as traditional Indian souvenirs. Don't forget to sample some delicious dishes available here, such as curry served on banana leaves – one of the tastiest Indian dishes always available everywhere in Singapore.
