I noticed that I featured on a few occasions the Hindu or Buddhist Singapore but never the Christian nor Muslim side of it. I am repairing this today with a view of the Sultan Mosque which is located in the Arab quarter. It is built on the site of the original mosque that was erected in 1824 and the present building dates back from 1925. It is the oldest mosque in Singapore and is right in the heart of the Malay and Arab settlement of the Arab quarter known as Kampong Glam. Another interesting area to visit just next to Little India and not too far from Chinatown. That's what is great about Singapore... You can actually visit so many 'countries' in just a few hours.
