Review & FAQ:
A true testament to the power of the human spirit, the Temple in The Sea was built almost single-handedly by Seedas Sadhu, an indentured laborer from India. After being denied land to build a Hindu temple, Sadhu spent 25 years unloading buckets of dirt into the sea to create a piece of artificial land and building the temple out of stones he carried through the water on his bicycle. The government decided to help finish the temple in 1994, and today the colorful octagon-shaped building can easily be accessed by a pier that connects it to the mainland.
