The cries from the abattoirs filled the air while the 'bhai susu' outside rang their bells ‘Milk, fresh milk!' Buffalo carts bearing goods and people of every shape, size and persuasion went rickety by. |

It was once said that there are three ways to India from Singapore: by ship, by plane, and by a short walk to Little India. Look here a spice, there a garland, and hail, a sagely old bird who tells your fortune! One always finds it so difficult to resist the charms of Little India and it's little wonder that this is one of our guides' favorite Walks. Join the guides as they share about Singapore's rich heritage and colorful history. |
