Germany's vibrant capital Berlin has only a comparatively small Hindu temple despite a fair number of Tamil and Indian Hindus. The Sri Mayurapathy Murugan temple, founded in 1991, is situated in the basement of a residential building in Kreuzberg. Letters in Tamil and western alphabet are written to the entrance's sides. The windows of the temple are painted similar to a shrine's outlook. (21.04.2004)
