Chinatown, Historic quarter in Central District, Singapore

The streets of Chinatown feature traditional shophouses with ornate facades, narrow alleyways, and contemporary buildings housing restaurants and specialty stores.

In the early 1800s, Chinese immigrants established this settlement area following Sir Stamford Raffles' urban planning that designated ethnic residential districts.

The temples within Chinatown represent multiple faiths, including the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, Sri Mariamman Temple, and Jamae Mosque along South Bridge Road.

The Smith Street Food Street offers local dishes until late evening, with covered seating areas protecting diners from rain and sun throughout the year.

The district contains a Michelin-starred hawker stall, Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice and Noodle, serving meals for under five Singapore dollars.
