Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple

The temple is dedicated to the Goddess Kali, the ferocious incarnation of Lord Siva’s wife, Meenachi, Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple is thought to be the first temple in Singapore to venerate her. It was believed that the temple was built as early as 1855 by Tamil labourers who worked at the lime kilns that lined Kampong Kapor in the mid-to late 19th century.When war broke out in Singapore in 1942,the temple served as a refuge as well as a place for worship. Miraculously, the temple and all its statues emerged from the war unscathed.

We saw some women lay their mats and were peddling their goods outside the temple. The gates were closed so we did not enter the temple.

Bought some snacks along the way .. Dragged our heavy feets back to Little India.
