Geocache Description:

Little India is the meeting point of the local Indian community. It's a hubbub of activity by both day and night, with people eating, shopping, worshipping, or just hanging out with family and friends. For visitors, it's an unparalleled chance to experience first-hand one of the oldest and most colorful cultures in the world. This batch of geocaches will guide you to some of the highlights of this fascinating town-within-a-town.

This cache in the Little India series will bring you to Tekka Centre, a building next to the Little India MRT station that houses a wet market, a hawker center, and a host of stalls selling Indian garments and textiles, watches, jewellery, and other sundry items. Its facade has gone through a few different shades of pastel over the years, but the activity within remains very much the same. The market opens at 6:30 a.m and closes in the afternoon; the cooked food stalls stay open into the night. The building also houses 2 well-known Indian restaurants that had their origins across the street along Selegie Road. Food here is generally good and cheap, making it a popular destination for locals looking to refuel after a day of work or play.

The cache is a micro magnetic container. BYOP, and please be discreet when retrieving and replacing.
