Singapore in Pictures 10 — Ethnic Neighborhoods and Street Scenes 2


Kampong Gelam (Kampong Glam) and the Masjid Sultan Mosque

Most of the photos taken in this this week’s and next’s subseries of articles were in Singapore’s Chinatown, Little India, and Arab Street in the Kampong Gelam (also called Kampong Glam) area. Today’s article in particular focuses on the Muslim section of Kampong Gelam, with particular emphasis on the Masjid Sultan Mosque.
