Singapore Trip Overview
Chinatown has also come a long way since the early days when Chinese immigrants made this enclave their home. Filled with sprawling myriad of shops and eateries, bustling with colourful and exciting activities set against a backdrop of rich history and heritage, Chinatown is not to be missed especially in the evenings when everything really comes alive.
Wander along the narrow lanes of the night market and test your bargaining skills against street vendors selling anything from souvenirs to leather goods. Visit a Chinese calligrapher to witness a demonstration on the art of Chinese Calligraphy.
A highlight of the evening is a trishaw ride that takes you through the alleyways of Chinatown and down to Clarke Quay. There hop onto a bumboat for a cruise along the Singapore River to see Singapore lit up at night, showcasing beautifully restored shophouses, modern skyscrapers of the financial district, colonial buildings and the iconic Merlion statue
