Sri Mariamman Temple is Singapore's oldest Hindu temple. It was built in 1827, 8 years after the British East India Company established a trading settlement in the country. The temple serves mainly the South India Tamil Hindu and was gazetted as a National Monument.

Recently under renovation, the removal of the scaffolds revealed the stunningly impressive painting work. A great time for a visit with a camera.
