1. Chinatown
Singapore’s historic Chinatown is a bustling mix of old and new, filled with traditional shops and markets as well as cool stores and cafes.
The cramped five-foot-ways, dingy alleys and raucous street hawkers are relics of Chinatown’s past.
Yet pockets of history remain in Chinatown, along with more modern sights. You could easily spend a full day wandering through these still-narrow streets.
Family-run goldsmiths, medicinal halls and teahouses ply their trades next to hipster bars and lifestyle shops in the adjoining sleeker neighbors.
