This temple was at Jalan Berhala for 15 years before moving to the current location to make way for the monorail.
Krishna is one of the avatars of Lord Vishnu
Thulasi plants are usually grown at Krishna temples because Krishna loves thulasi.
Devotees chant this mantra:
“Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Hare, Hare”
It is believed to be bad luck to build structures on a T-junction. Therefore, Lord Ganesan is placed outside the temple for protection.
