More Wiki: “The Sri Mariamman Temple was founded in 1827 by Naraina Pillai, eight years after the East India Company established a trading settlement in Singapore.”
I went in (of course). It looked like this inside too. They had a singer doing an extended chant that was really quite lovely. Coincidently or not, I’m not sure on the timing, but the Muslim temple on the next block was also having a chanter.
