who built the temple in the sea in trinidad
Temple in the Sea The Temple in the Sea is a Hindu pilgrimage site in Waterloo, Carapichaima, Couva-Tabaquite-Talparo, Trinidad and Tobago. It was built by Sewdass Sadhu, an immigrant who came to Trinidad and Tobago from India. It is similar to the Sagar Shiv Mandir in Mauritius.
Golden Temple Guru Arjan conceived the idea of creating a central place of worship for the Sikhs and designed it. Earlier the planning to excavate the holy tank (Amritsar or Amrit Sarovar) was chalked out by Guru Amar Das, the Third Sikh Guru, but it was executed by Guru Ram Das under the supervision of Baba Budha. The land for the site was acquired by the earlier Guru Sahibs on payment or free of cost from the Zamindars (landlords) of native villages. The plan to establish a town settlement was also made and the construction work on the Sarovar (the tank) and the town started simultaneously in 1570. The work on both projects was completed in 1577. In December 1588, Guru Arjan initiated the construction of the gurdwara and the foundation stone was laid by Hazrat Mian Mir on 28 December 1588.[15][16][17][17][18][19]
