    In Little India you will find lots of little shops selling flowers, spices, textile, trinkets and heaps of Bollywood DVD's.

    There are many Indian restaurants including Komala Vilas which comes with a reputation as one of the best vegetarian restaurants in Singapore. Komala Vilas also sell a large variety of snacks and sweets which satisfied this sweet tooth!

    But try to avoid coming here on weekends in Little India as it can be very crowded.

    Take a walk thru Little India and u can see many coloured shophouses.

    See how the the jasmine garlands are woven, have a Henna Tatoo and lots of phototaking opportunity here.

    Shop at the 24 hours Mustafa Shopping Centre where u can find from household items to electronics (almost anything).

    It's an Indian District, with lots of stalls selling vegetables, shops selling Indian music CDs, Indian Clothing and gold.

    I stayed in this area for 2 nights. During my stay, I've never experienced any hassling. It's a peaceful area where you can see the daily life of the Indians. They are so hard working, shops open till after mid-night!

    Another great thing is the Indian food here, cheap (compared with other food in other areas) and yummy!

    Go there and walk around, you'll be impressed -- by the buildings, the food and the people!

    50 ft Buddha!

    This temple, close to the bus drop for the S'pore-K.L. express buses, is known as the Temple of a 1000 Lights. However, it is not the lighting that will catch your eye upon emtering this temple. It is the 45 foot high standing, gold Buddha. The name derives from the lighting that is draped over the Buddha. The building has an attached worship shrine to its left, and I was able to ask the worker a few questions about Buddhism, with a very enthusiastic response.

    I visited Singapore during the month of November, whilst I was here this really huge Hindu festival was on, The streets of Little India district were decked out in these wonderful lights (that the piccie does no justice to).

    They were fantastic and Little India was packed with people taking pics and viewing them.

    So if you visit during this religious festival - take a trip into Little India at night to see the lights.*

    This very nice temple is in Little India, I think every place is nice to see it full of people. Its not the same see a place empty than full of people praying and making feel you something very special and really wellkome. Built in 1881, this temple is dedicated to the Hindu Goddess Kali, the consort of Shiva. She is known as the Goddess of Power and the name "Veeramakaliamman" means "Kali the Courageous". Tuesdays and Fridays the streets are full of devotees on their way to pray. Close from 12:30 p.m. and 4 p.m.
