Temple & mosque tour around Little India, Arab Street and Bugis

Sunday January 28, 2007

As it is my last weekend I decided to get on a walk for some sights I left out: Stuff like famous temples, churches and whatsoever. But first of all, I started my day at City Hall area in order to catch some Myanmar food at Peninsula Plaza. So I walked around that area afterwars but it started raining quite heavy so I decided to hit MRT and get to Farrer Park at Little India.

Gate of Srinivasa temple at Serangoon Road Surprisingly here, just about 3km from City Hall there was partially cloudy sky… So I walked down to the famous Sri Sirinivasa Perumal temple at Serangoon Road with its impressive gate and nice interieur. Nice to look at, but not for a long stay. After getting a Lassi at Tekka Market I proceeded to Waterloo Street in order to see the Kuan Yin and Sri Krishnan Temple. The Kuan Yin one was closed due to maintenance, but the Sri Krishnan one was open – and it is definitively worth to go there! Full of scultures and colorful paintaings this temple is probably the most “packed” one in Singapore.

To conclude this day I walked down to Arab street and had a tradtional tea. I was originally intended to catch some Muslim food in Kampong Glam, but most street restaurants were closed so I got back to bugis and had some Nasi Lemak with Chicken.
