Little India, centred around Serangoon Road, embodies the vibrant and colourful culture of the Indian community in Singapore. Women in graceful saris go about their daily business in the Zhujiao Centre, where a bewildering selection of food is on sale.
Small shops abound, selling bolts of glittering silks, temple garlands, gold jewellery and spices that are ground in front of you. The Hindu religion plays an important part in the life of Little India, and the Sri Veerama Kaliaman and Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temples in the area are well worth visiting. Allow two hours to browse.
Mustafa Center It is a famous department store, supermarket, pharmacy, jeweller, money changer, hotelier, travel agency and post office all rolled into one. From its early days in 1971 when it was only retailing garments, Mustafa Center sure has come a long way. In contrast to its relatively modest blue-glass exterior, you can get almost anything you want here from over 90,000 items displayed on four levels, commanding a total retail space of 70,000 square feet. With a wealth of offering at some of the lowest prices in Singapore, it's no wonder that this outlet is popular with tourists and locals looking for the best bargains. And if by some coincidence you can't find what you need, just inform the management and they'll do the favour of sourcing it for you.
