The South
Why go
A Tamil temple dedicated to the goddess Karli, in the Ravine Blanche district of Saint-Pierre. Built as a thatched hut in the 1950s, it was first renovated in 1970 and then completely rebuilt in 1990 by craftsmen who came specially from India. Its architecture is designed as a representation of the goddess's body: the entrance symbolises her mouth.
