 This
modest but colourful area of wall-to-wall shops,
pungent aromas and Hindi film music is a relief
from the prim modernity of many parts of the city.
Centred around the southern end of Serangoon
Rd, this is the place to come to pick up that
framed print of a Hindu god you've always wanted,
eat great vegetarian food and watch streetside
cooks fry chapatis.
The Zhujiao Centre is the main market, but there
are also interesting spice shops nearby. The best
temples are Veerama Kali Ammam, Sri Srinivasa
Perumal and the glitzy Temple of 1000 Lights.
Little India, where we will explore narrow streets
overflowing with gold and spices, pots and pans,
saris and jasmine, and allow our senses to be
assailed by the exotic fragrance of curries and
a chance to sample a meal.
Next, on to a wet market at Geylang Serai, to
witness the scene of shrewd housewives jostle
to ensure that only the freshest foods get laid
out at the dinner table.
Proceed with a drive pass Katong where a majority
of Peranakan families have set up their home and
business before making our final stop in Chinatown,
where the Chinese secret of keeping healthy and
young traditional way is revealed.
