Visit the stately Masjid Sultan Mosque or wander through shops selling rattan handicrafts, old fabric, trinkets, and more. Proceed to Chinatown, a showcase of the rich cultural history of the earlier settlers and explore the Chinese influence on the city. Walk the pathways passing by goldsmith shops, traditional Chinese medical halls, calligraphy masters, tea houses and even funeral shops selling replicas of modern items. At Little India, a district that embodies the vibrant and dynamic pulse of the Indian community, you will be greeted by a myriad of colours and aromas the moment you arrive. Observe henna hand painters and flower garland making in action.
