Felt very proud to see such a wonderful and well maintained Indian temple in Singapore. Every single statue is so elegant and exquisitely carved. The detailing is breathtaking. The silver and gold work too is rich and mesmerizing. Prasadam is kept in a basket for the devotees, wrapped in cute small betel leaves. The best part of the temple is the energising fragrance of the temple premises which is a mix of ghee lamps, incense sticks and fresh flowers offerings to Kali Mata

My visit to Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple in Little India was a standout moment. This temple, dedicated to Goddess Kali  and Parvati, is open daily from 5:30 AM–12:30 PM and 4:00 PM–9:30 PM (closed midday) . Visitors are welcomed with open arms—just remember to leave your shoes at the entrance and dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees; wraps are provided free if needed) . The exterior is an absolute visual feast: the façade bursts with bright pastel colors, intricate carvings, and rows of sculpted deities and mythical creatures in vivid detail . The gopuram (tower) is especially spectacular, stacked with figures in perfect harmony . Built in the Dravidian style, the temple dates back to 1881—with roots stretching even earlier into a small 1855 shrine . Inside and out, it’s a dazzling blend of culture, artistry, and devotion. Everything is well-maintained and deeply vibrant. Even if you didn’t go in, the energy and beauty from the outside give a strong preview of the spiritual richness within. Highly recommend carving out time during your Little India visit—you’ll leave feeling inspired and uplifted.

Busy temple of Devi. In Little India so you can imagine how busy it gets during weekends. Many Devi avatars. A great feeling to see so many superwomen powers :)

You need to visit this temple as it holds insane serene energy! You can simply sit there next to the wall, observe prayers or pray yourself, but even absorbing the energy of the place is already healing and inspiring. Don’t treat it as a sightseeing, treat it as a sacred space where you can charge your spiritual batteries ✨ It’s free of charge. You may donate some money if you feel so. Don’t forget to cover your shoulders and knees. But they also have some cloth to borrow in case you came unprepared

Little India is a vibrant place in Singapore with street arts, temples, and authentic Indian shops. During my visit I was strolling through the place and loved the vibe. A recommended visit if you're looking for Indian food, garments, and jewellery.

We went right on time when prayers were happening and temple opened at 4pm. It was great to see the pooja

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.
