Around the World: Singapore
Some more pictures from today wandering. Very hot day, but unfortunately in the afternoon the sky went gloomy. In any case it was really interesting to see how the different people professed their religion.
Not sure if this was a real tradition or only that people thought it was pretty...
Chinatown, still some remainings of the Chinese New Year...
higher is better
They were inviting people to the prey (I think...)
You can go inside and see one tooth of the Buddha
Inside the temple people was burning little sheet of paper with something written inside
Those are the "tablets" of your ancestors and of course you have to bring food to relatives when you come and visit on Saturday
Aside from the fact that is a nice mosque, it was named after a woman merchant of the XIX century
