About Little India George Town
Little India covers the grid of streets around Lebuh Pasar, Lebuh Queen and Lebuh Chulia, next to the Sri Mahamariamman Temple. Textile shops sell saris, kurtas, batik and fabric by the metre, while smaller shops stock brass lamps, bangles, incense, garlands and Indian spice mixes that pack flat for the flight home.
Spice blends and tea are the easiest gifts to carry, and the textile shops can be good value for batik and cotton. Asking for a discount when you buy several items is normal. The area is busiest in the evening and in the weeks before Deepavali. It sits between Armenian Street and the waterfront, so you can walk here from the other heritage-zone shops in this guide.
