" It closed to The Buddha Tooth Relic Pagoda, so we walked to here. You need to walk on bare foot when inside the temple. They have some shoes racks outside where you can put your shoes. They also offer you free cloth or long dress to cover if you wear too short or have too much skin.

It's better to go with a guide who can show you more about the place "

" A famous divine temple of Singapore located in Chinatown. Apart from Mariamman, the temple also has many other deities including Sivan and Parvathi. Regular poojas are conducted here with great devotion. A perfect place to get a taste of Indian culture and tradition amidst the Chinese culture in Chinatown. "

" Very nice place for an exotic experience of a different region which may not be very popular in some of your cities. Beautiful decorations and special atmosphere with warm welcome by the religious. They may offer you free rice and food at dinner time. You may look apparently special if you're Asian or white among the other religious who are mostly Indians here. Good experience if you're very open-minded to engage in a difference culture. "

" It is a small ancient Hindu temple located about 5 mins walk from the Buddha tooth relic temple in china town. Free entry from the main gate but once we get inside and if we want to go further to make our prayers, we have to pay for it. We have to even pay for taking photographs inside the temple(3 Singaporean Dollar).
Time of travel: March 2018
Traveler type: couple "

" This temple makes impress to me. The gate is so amending, encourage to enter. Inside you will find a lot of interesting wall paintings. What made an impression on me is skyscrapers in background. You have to visit this place in Singapore. "

" A temple from old Singapore open to people across religious beliefs and cultures, with traditional architecture confirming to South Indian Shilpa Shastra (principles of temple architecture) where the Pooja rituals are performed by Vedic rules, with shradha in a manner that some one from Tamilnadu, India finds it perfect. "

" Serene and divine. Great mix of cultures on one street. A Buddhist temple, a Hindu temple and mosque all 100 metres from each other "

" I had a very nice moment being in this place. The people were so nice with me. They provide you some food sometime. And there is something so spiritual. "

" As you walk around make sure you look up and take note of all the statues on the roof. Keep an eye on the ceilings for some large paintings. Shoes off when you enter a tourist can walk all around the temple with just the inner area in front of the alter being reserved for the faithful. A selfie stick is a bonus here allowing better photos of the roof top atatues. "

" I've never really been to a Hindu Temple before so I don't really have much to base my review on, but visiting here was a great culturally enlightening experience. If you're in the area, take a few minutes to walk around and learn a bit more about Hinduism. "

" A great place for a Hindu temple, really. There's also this rule where you have to cover up, so either wear jeans, long skirts, or you'll have to borrow a shawl/saree. Unfortunately it feels like business has affected the temple quite much. There's a S$3 fee for you to take photos within the temple, and honestly there's not too many good photo spots. "

" Interesting to see the beautiful idols and architecture. Be modestly dressed or you'll need to borrow a cover-up shawl/sari. There are clearly signed areas where they do not want tourists to go, but you can still get a good view of most things. Beware, $3 to take photos inside (you can get photos through the gate from the lane at the side for no cost though). We went at about 6pm and a worship ceremony was in progress (which we could watch from the tourist area). "

" been told this is oldest Hindu temple in Singapore. Sorry, but i was expecting more. I like to look at sculpture and art in Hindu temple, the way their build with all the colour matching are so impressive. It was a ritual they performed, I have no idea what that is. Is there any tour guide for explanation over there ? "

" A nice temple to see, but I would not consider it as a must-see. Be aware that you'll need to pay $3 if you bring a photo camera to the temple, and $6 if you want to film here. "

" Old and colorful temple. A good view from both inside and out. It's worth talking your shoes off to walk inside, but be courteous as this temple is still in use. "
