The Religious trip through the diverse area of China Town

The Religious Field Trip Through the Diverse Area of China Town


On thursday the 9th of December 7th grade of ISKL went to the diverse area of China Town. During this trip we had to visit a chinese and Hindu temple. Also we have to visit a mosque placed in the middle of all. to get there we have to take a local train which was packed. For lunch most of the groups stopped at a food court in Central Market. When me and my group were walking through China town and surrounded area we did not feel very safe because there people trying to steel thing from our pockets. The sign of people stealing from your pockets means that this area is not very rich. When you have a reasonable income you care about your hygiene and you want people to be clean. Since these people are not very rich they don't have the money to make this place clean which means that the smell won't also be as pleasant. Even though the areas are very dirty and smelly their worship places are very clean. In the chinese temple it smelt like the incense from the fire. In the Hindu temple it smelt like the candles that they light to represent freedom. Unfortunately I did not go into the mosque but what I did see is that the Muslims don't have any pictures ad the mosque is mostly white.
