Visited temple during a walk around Little India. Lots of devotees praying to various Hindu dieties. Some of them were pouring milk into a big container.

Sri Veeramakaliamman is a Hindu Temple dedicated to goddess Kali, whose construction started in 1881 by Bengali workers. The entrance is a richly decorated Gopuram (tower) and also the interior doesn’t hold back on ornaments. You are allowed to enter only with covered legs, but they provide sarongs for free if you don’t have one. As a person coming from a totally different culture, seeing all the Hindu people praying has been a truly unique experience.

Well maintained. Lot of forienrs coming. Going to do Kumba Abhsekam. Pray almighty to do good things who ever prays her with faith.

I had a chance to visit Singapore for a week on business discussions and meetings, and we happen to drop by in this temple over the weekend This is a nice place. You can spend time have Darshan also have Prasad and meet some fellow Indians living in Little India area overall, it was a good experience

A Hindu temple. Not the most beautiful I've seen in Singapore. Pale, dull colors. Access is free, but you have to take off your shoes. It's a visit that shouldn't take more than 20 minutes.

Colorful, lively, and full of energy. A great place to experience Indian culture, food, and shopping in Singapore.

Indian temple in Singapore which is located in Indian Town. This place was easy to get to by subway. But as we walked to the temple we found out that the time we went in the afternoon was when they were closed. So if you want to enjoy not only the outside please check the times first to see when they are open! Completely regret it and wish we could have gone inside. Took a few photos and also walked around the town just to enjoy the area for a bit.

So this was a serendipitous find! Was walking down the main street in Little India and noticed the ornate roof of the temple from across the street. As we approached the door, a flamboyant ceremony was getting under way with 8 or 10 men carrying a statue (lion perhaps) on a platform hoisting on their shoulders. Another guy was dancing around with fire, and the musicians were beating and blaring away, eventually creating a small parade among the participants. It is times like this (as well evidenced in my description) that I feel completely ignorant of the ceremonial traditions of other cultures. As the men essentially danced back and forth, onlookers were overwhelmed in prayer and reverence. So much ritual amidst the color of this wildly decorated temple. I need to read up before going back! BTW... Little India is fascinating, and feels like a million miles away from the Central Business District of Singapore!

Beautiful Hindu temple in Little India. Anyone is allowed to enter sans shoes, and you are likely to witness rituals taking place. There are also many people here praying, so be mindful when walking through to take pictures.

A must to see if you are visiting Singapore, a visual experience. So colorful and the statues around the temple are fascinating. Please be respectful of the people praying in the temple.

Beautiful temple. It's a bit small for what I was expecting, but the décors and the details of statues and the ceiling are amazing

Colorful temple with a huge collection of painted statues. Make sure to take your shoes off outside. A quick walk around will suffice to see the various statues of gods. I had no idea what kind of service or even if it was a service going on, but it was very lively and interesting.
