Jan, you sure this is a Hindu temple? Looks like a Sikh temple to me, but I am not sure

Oeps. As a non-believer, I should keep mum about religion...:-)
Actually it is not a temple at all. It is a Mamak Muslim shrine, the Nagore Shrine (built in the 1880's)

george, don't be fooled by the golden topped spires. a sikh temple will have 'gurdwara' in its name. the signage does not have that. besides, it would not have green 'drapery', yellow mostly. /stephen
