Kristine's Trip to Singapore Sept 2-8, 2004

A small street parallel to Arab Street. The shops were closed since it was before 10am.
An antique shop off of Arab St. The goods here are mainly imported from India.
Something that's been dried to a jerky format. I have no clue what it is. Cropped from this picture are jerky squid, jerky shrimp, jerky scallops, and many kinds of jerky fish.
Sultan's Mosque on Arab St.
As viewed from down an alley of shops.
Me in front of Sultan's Mosque, so you know I didn't just get the pics from elsewhere.
You've got to take your shoes off and be dressed conservatively to get in. The lady in the brown gown was wearing shorts.
The inside of the mosque is pretty simple - just an enormous prayer room.
This is a chandelier at the mosque. There's little details like this all over the mosque but it manages to not be gaudy like some Buddhist or Hindu temples.
Islam is very big on cleanliness. There are huge washrooms where you have to wash before you can pray.
A view of the outside of the mosque.
