Bangaloreans are very religious people and they are of all faiths. Temples on the roadside like this are common. So are shrines to Christian saints. One can see mosques, temples, churches and gurdwaras all over the city.

This man driving on his scooter has even stopped holding on to the scooter handle bars as he joins his hand in prayer while driving on the road near Ulsoor lake. The Gurdwara below is also near the lake. It attracts many people from the Punjab and offers free shelter and food to weary travellers.
