Little India learning journey

Yesterday, we spent 3 hours in Little India, walking around and trying out the food in Tekka Food Centre and also Indian sweets. I was heartened to see many of you sharing the Indian sweets among yourselves. Sharing is caring. :)

Other than food, we saw a temple and the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Hall. We also visited The Little India Arcade. A wide variety of things can be seen there such as beautiful garlands, accessories, sarees etc. Henna drawings are also not to be missed. Here are some links if you are interested to find out more about Little India and Mahatma Gandhi.
