Kampong Glam
(the Arab Quarter, where Arab St is located)
In my opinion, an incredibly underrated part of Singapore
at Kampong Glam
you get to experience a delightful mix of the old and the new.
In In Malay, the word "Kampung" means "village or settlement" and "Glam" is the name of a particular tree,
which grew in abundance in the area in early Singapore.
(ingatkan sebab dia Glam = ) hehehehe)

Overview :
It's a strange paradox that one of the oldest precincts in Singapore--an important gathering area for the original settlers in Singapore, the Malay and Muslim communities--has over the years embraced modern shops that are bohemian and alternative.
The curious mix of trendy and traditional means that you could be eating nasi padang (Malay dishes with rice) in a century-old conservation shophouse on one visit, but on your next, shopping for new wave boutique clothing or chilling at a brand-new kedai makan. That's what creates the buzz in this place and it's why people keep coming back to the area, whether they're hipsters or history buffs.

Jalan jalan tetiba.... sampai di Bugis Street.... I tell U... very Unique retail shopping location. After undergoing a major facelift, Bugis Street now is the largest street shopping location in Singapore. With a unique blend of retail concepts ranging from chic and fashionable clothing and accessories, etc. Although the street is not a well known tourist destination, it is frequented by many Singaporeans. |
