Tekka Wet Market in Little India, Singapore
Business time is around 10am until 5-6pm

I noticed that the place is quite small compared to Mustafa
What I like about this place is 1^st the clothes is really cheap. You can buy some Indian clothes
 at S$ 15 and the designs are superb !
There are different types of Indian clothes :
1. Sari-  this garment has 4-9 meters in lengths and widely used in India.
2. Salwar Kameez mostly worn in Northern part of India, it is called Punjabi in Southern part of India
If you are familiar with bollywood movies, this is used a lot by actresses.
A Salwar Kameez is mostly partnered with dupatta (scarf to cover the head or shoulder).
3.Lehenga Choli -one of the most exensive clothing i have seen in my life.
Lots of beautiful designs to choose from, it is  mostly worn during festivals and marriage ceremonies.
4.Kurti- Casual wear, it is partnered with churidar (narrow pants),legging or jeans.

They have different sizes that are available in Tekka.



I was looking for some tikka (it's like a bracelet and the ring is attached)  and mom bought some clothes here. Since I can’t find it, I just roamed around here.
The bangles and clothes here are really affordable and what nice about this place is that you can bargain.

You can take pictures outside and inside as long as you respect the worshipers inside and be quiet.
But I suggest not to take pictures inside since it will bother the people there, instead appreciate the designs inside. It is really spectacular !
Also take off you shoes outside and observe dress code.

Next:  Mustafa (Little India )
Mustafa is a big mall located at Serangoon.
You can find most Indian fashion and Souvenirs here.

The clothes are quite expensive compare to other shops but the designs are superb.
Lots of varieties to choose from.  They have small sizes but kinda rare.
It is quite unique since you can't find similar clothes there with same design or color.

What I like about in Mustafa is the Chocolates section, the prices are really CHEAP and there are lots of expensive brands there. So yeah if you have a chocolate addiction  like me then this is our place <3

Next is if you want to buy some Indian foods/or something from groceries then you can purchase it here.  They have a big supermarket under, I bought some papad, spices, Indian style snacks and some microwavable foods to bring  back at home just in case I will be craving for it.

For a foreigner, a souvenir is a must.
They have a wide range of souvenir items there like; photo cards, key chains, merlions, shirts, etc.

Hungry ? In front of Mustafa there is a Indian Restaurant that is serves delicious foods.
Every time I visit Mustafa I always dine here. Plus the place is clean and has AC.

Chicken Biryani is superb ^^

The prices are  affordable compare to other restaurants. If you like to try Indian delicacies then I really recommend this place :)
