Culture

Finished shopping? It's time for some cultural experience! Farrer Park has MANY religious buildings in the are, from a temple to a mosque. There are about 3 indian temples, 2 chinese temples, a mosque and a christian church. You probably wouldn't have enough time to see them all, but here are some nice ones:


Sri Srinivasa Perumal temple-Thaipusam is held here every year, when devotees will pierce their bodies and walk from here to Tank Road, a long distance, women will also sometimes put pots on their heads. During Thaipusam, the roads will always be jammed because the devotees are allocated two road lanes which are sealed off to cars. The cars in the remaining lanes will slow down to watch the festivities. The best is to walk along with the crowd, stick by the starting point, where you can see everything. The festival goes on late into the night. The 

Anguillia Mosque-It's rare that you will find a Muslim place in the middle of Little India. The Anguillia Mosque is also known as the Al-Chulia Al-Abra Mosque.
