Location
Temple Street is bound within the Chinatown Conservation Area. Nearby Pagoda and Trengganu Streets, famous for the wide variety of Chinese trade and colourful street scenes that change from season to season, will soon be turned into pedestrian malls.
Here you will find an enhancing web of curious backlanes and bustling streets teeming with shops selling quirky wares, strange-to-behold Chinese dried goods stalls and steamy, flavour-a-plenty coffee shops, amidst festivities that light up the streets in a medley of colours.
Experience the wonderfully rich, eclectic architectural heritage of the cross-culture of Chinese, Indian, Malay and European roots, expressed in the meriad of shophouse design that is the principal fabric of Chinatown today. Some of Singapore's oldest historical monuments such as the Sri Mariamman (Hindu) Temple, Jamae (Muslim) Mosque, and the Jinrikisha (richshaw pullers of old) Station Building are located here.
Chinatown with its blend of the enchanting old world and vibrance of contemporary Singapore is ever fascinating to both locals and travellers from far and wide. Inspired by colonial romanticism, many fine restaurants, cafes, pubs, tea houses and night entertainment spots have sprouted up along the sidewalks here, providing alfresco dining and exciting nightlife.
