Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple or Sri Perumal Temple (Tamil: சிங்கப்பூர் ஸ்ரீநிவாசப் பெருமாள் கோயில்) is one of the oldest temples in Singapore. It is located in Little India within the planning area of Kallang along Serangoon Road, where its tall Gopuram (tower) shows the different incarnations of Lord Vishnu. This large complex, dedicated to Vishnu, dates from 1855, but the 20-metres-tall Gopuram was only built in 1966 at a cost of S$300,000. The temple's five-tier Gopuram was a donation from P. Govindasamy Pillai, one of the earliest Indian migrants to Singapore. In 1978, the temple was gazetted as a National monument of Singapore.

Farrer Park MRT station

Farrer Park MRT station is an underground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station along the North East Line (NEL), located on the boundary of Kallang and Rochor planning areas, Singapore. To facilitate its construction, several buildings in its vicinity had to be shut down and vacated. Despite this, residents alongside Tessensohn Road and Starlight Terrace asked for more time to move. The significant concentration of marine clay in the ground and its proximity to Little India proved to be challenges in its construction, due to the risk of building damage. The station opened on 20 June 2003 in tandem with the rest of the NEL. It is one of the two stations that serve the ethnic district of Little India. The station sits underneath the Connexion building, Farrer Park Hospital and One Farrer Hotel. Rhythmic Exuberance by Poh Siew Wah is displayed at this station as part of the Art-in-Transit programme. Rhythmic Exurberance consists of a mix of realistic and abstract forms. It consists of five murals depicting various sports, highlighting Farrer Park's history as a sports hub prior to World War II.
