Itinerary
Kampong Glam
Discover Kampong Glam, Singapore’s vibrant Malay and Muslim quarter — where heritage, culture, and creativity meet. Once the seat of the Malay royalty, this colourful neighbourhood is filled with stories of tradition and transformation. Wander through narrow lanes lined with shophouses selling textiles, perfumes, and handmade crafts, and feel the spirit of old Singapore blending seamlessly with the city’s modern edge. The stunning Sultan Mosque, crowned with its shimmering golden dome, stands at the heart of the district — a timeless icon of faith and community.
Little India
Step into Little India, a neighbourhood that engages all your senses. Hear the rhythmic beats of Bollywood music, breathe in the aroma of spices and jasmine, and admire the vibrant hues of silk saris swaying in the shopfronts. Visit the Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple, one of Singapore’s oldest and most ornate Hindu temples, where intricate carvings and colourful deities tell tales from centuries of devotion. Every corner of Little India offers a glimpse into Singapore’s multicultural soul — alive, joyful, and deeply authentic.
Chinatown
Experience Chinatown, a fascinating blend of ancient heritage and contemporary life. Walk through bustling streets filled with lanterns, herbal shops, and street food stalls, and let the aroma of roasted duck and dim sum guide your way. The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple dazzles with its magnificent architecture and sacred relics — a place of peace amid the energy of the city. Whether you’re exploring traditional teahouses or hunting for keepsakes in the market, Chinatown captures the essence of Singapore’s Chinese heritage — rich, vibrant, and ever-evolving.
