Sengkang Murugan temple



Sengkang murugan temple has been one of the popular temples in Singapore. It is both a murugan and gynamuneeswarar temple. Both festivals pertaining lord murugan and muneeswaran happens in this temple.

The temple is located at Rivervale Crescent in Sengkang next to Chong Hua Tong Tou Teck Hwee Prayer hall and Sengkang Combined Taoist Temple. It is the first Hindu temple to be established with the support and funding from the Buddhist Community. Quite a peaceful place as it is located quite outside the buzzing city. If you have not visited already, do so now

If I happen to visit Singapore sometime will drop in there . :)Have good time. By the way the picture of the temple is really good. captured from a good angle. :)
