Even before you step into Little India (area bound by Serangoon Road, Sungei Road and Jalan Besar), the exotic smell of spices and curry will tempt and tease when you are at periphery of this colourful and vibrant area. Here you will find a snapshot of the various cultures, religions, and cuisines of India. Right from the creamy, tandoor-inspired treats of the North, to the rice and tamarind-infused foods of the South, to favourite Indian sweets.
Little India offers a paradise for bargain hunters and shoppers. Boutique shops that line the street offer you some of the best bargains in Singapore. Then you have the popular Mustafa Centre: A budget mega-department store where you will find everything you need at any time of the day or night.
During Deepavali, Little India is decked up like royalty with artistic light decorations that will fill you with a sense of wonder and awe.
