Chinatown. A Sunday Morning visit to Singapore Chinatown.
Singapore's Chinatown is a beautiful mess where temples and hawker stalls exist alongside chic bars and art galleries
Noisy, chaotic, and full of human traffic - that’s the general consensus of what the Chinatowns of the world are like. Singapore’s is no different, but beyond being just a tourist hotspot, it also possesses a charming air that appeals to even the most seasoned locals as well.
Once a designated Chinese kampong harking back to 1822, this bustling district is now where tradition and modernity blend seamlessly. Home to a good mix of hawker centres, temples, and teahouses, all set alongside trendy bars, cafés, and independent art galleries, Chinatown is certainly a riot of colours.
One of Chinatown Singapore’s most animated and all-encompassing pedestrianized lanes, lantern-strung Pagoda Street is an excellent starting point to soak up the sounds, scents, and shops of the district.
Lined with pretty colonial-era, vibrant shophouses and named for the adjacent Sri Mariamman Temple, the brief end-to-end walk takes in a medley of architectural styles, busy bars, neon signs, and a covered food market.
Climb the stairs at the far end, just beyond the MRT escalators, to take it all in and capture an iconic photograph of the pretty historic street framing the futuristic high-rises beyond. Behind, the garden-like pedestrian bridge, complete with a vivid red pagoda, affords excellent views of the mosaic-adorned Art Deco Majestic building, a former Cantonese opera house.
