Singapore Cultural Neighborhood Tours Itinerary (2026 Guide) – What You'll See & Do
Explore the full itinerary for Nostalgic Chinatown of Singapore in Singapore, Singapore. This cultural neighborhood tours experience includes 5 stops over 1 day. Duration: 2 hours. Activity level: Extreme.
Here is the starting point
Chinatown Complex
Chinatown Heritage Centre
Get a rare glimpse into the lives of Chinatown’s early residents. Located within three beautifully-restored shophouses on Pagoda Street, the Chinatown Heritage Centre is the only place in Singapore with the original interiors of its shophouse tenants in the 1950s recreated.
Chinatown Street Market
Take a stroll down the busy thoroughfares in the heart of Chinatown, and imbibe in the pulse of a place that permeates with history. Many of these roads have been pedestrianised so walking through them is a joy.
Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum
Hear what we have to say about the street upon which this temple is located. It is “deadly”. I know because I used to stay here as a child in the “bad old days”.
Ann Siang Hill
We will take a relaxed walk through elegant, restored shop houses and enjoy the sophisticated interplay of shopping, dining, history and modernity displayed in an eclectic mix. I will also relate to you my exploits here as a child as I was enrolled in a Chinese stream primary school here.
This concludes the tour.
