Gopuram

Posted by Frois-Naidu on 12:23 PM













Finally got to visit the Sri Mariamman Temple,which is Singapore's oldest Hindu temple. The gopuram rises above the main entrance along South Bridge Road. There is no shortage of interesting captures as the main tower(gopuram) is filled with six tiers of sculptures of Hindu deities, other figures.On either side of the gopuram are sculptures of Murugan and Krishna on the left.Was simply amazed by the detail of the sculptures which are all of made of plaster.Had a hard time choosing whether to post them in serpia(to create a most historical and realistic potrayal or in all its splendour and colour.
