Singapore is located just north of equator, and has very similar weather throughout a year; the climate is tropical, and sweaters are hardly needed (except in the air-conditioned areas).
Singapore is one of the biggest banking and transportation hubs not only in the region, but also in the world.
Singapore is well known as a shoppers' Mecca in the Far East, but due to its international flavor, it has a lot to offer in terms of dining and nightlife.
Both areas are part of the urban planning area of Rochor.
Little India is distinct from the Chulia Kampong area, which, under the Raffles Plan of Singapore, was originally a division of colonial Singapore where Indian immigrants would reside under the British policy of ethnic segregation.
The Little India area is reported to have developed around a former settlement for Indian convicts.
