Hindu Temple In Singapore - more pictures




Each time I look at my photos I see something new. today I noticed that the statues below are grey upon grey, all the elephants (elephant gods) look similar, but the figures above are in different poses. The white or cream statues are not coloured but against a coloured background, each one different and contrasting with the next coloured background. 

Like places of worship for all religions, it functions as a meeting place, a place of worship, a work of architecture and a work of art. Eventually it also becomes a piece of the history of the community.
