Chinatown
Focal Point Of Chinese Culture
Back to Chinatown
When you're around this local, try to purchase the Bak Kwa or Singaporean BBQ/Jerky. It may be pricey as it is sold by the kilo, but worth the taste. I tried taking some home but was confiscated at the US Customs. So eat as much as you can before you head back home. I recommend to buy some at the Bee Ching Hiang shop. You won't be disappointed!! Also to cool down, buy yourself an ice cream or drinks at the sidewalk stall for about $1 Singaporean.

Explore Singapore's vibrant Chinatown on a balmy evening tour that's filled with activities. After exploring Singapore's Chinatown and enjoying a Chinese dinner at a Chinatown restaurant, you'll take a tour with a difference by trishaw through Singapore's exciting Night Market then cruise along the Singapore River by traditional cargo boat.

Actually I enjoyed my experience here in Chinatown. I lived in Singapore for almost 2 months. I would say that there are places more to see beyond Pagoda St.You can do food tripping at the hawker food market near Amoy St. I enjoyed my day at The Madjestic, this is where i buy some of my food ingredients.:)

Chinatown is not typical of China in many ways, but it is a fun place to visit, especially if you've never been to Asia before.

I always stop in a little hotel on Mosque street rather than the modern monstrosities.

Chinatown is a must visit in Singapore.The buildings were so colourful that make feel vibrant.My best place in Chinatown was the Chinatown Heritage Centre which is located in Pagoda Street.This is a museum where you will learn all about the history of Chinatown and also how the early chinese immigrants live in hard lifes.My best part at the heritage centre gallery was the cubicle rooms.This part,it shows you all the small,tiny,cubicle rooms who was once lived by the early immigrants.There is also one part of the gallery which shows you the celebrations that was celebrated in Chinatown long ago.There are chinese New Year,Deepavali,Mid Autumn Festival and many more!The best part at this gallery was the Chinese New Year celebrations where you can witness the lion dance which moves and dances by itself(Using robotic funtions).Outside the Heritage Centre,there are alot of stalls around selling souvenirs like shirts,shoes and some even food stalls.Chinatown is also a place where Chinese New Year celebrations are celebrated here during the Chinese New Year which is held in February or January which is according to the Chinese calendar.Visit this lifely town.It will be a nice experience!To get to Chinatown,you can take the MRT which is a train which will bring you around Singapore because it is faster and easier.Then,there is an underground walkway which will lead you to Pagoda Street.
