* Malay Cultural Center

Singapore's ethnic cultural area shows its rich historical heritage and multi-ethnic and multi-cultural characteristics. Chinatown, Kampong Glam and Little India are the magnifying glasses for visitors to see through Singapore. Cultural districts can help you to know more about the religious beliefs, cultures, architectural features and eating habits of various ethnic groups in Singapore.

Chinatown was gradually formed in 1821. At that time, the first flat-bottomed Chinese sailboat from Xiamen, China and Fujian arrived in Singapore. The blue color on the boat is male. They settled in the area south of the Singapore River (which is now the Yayi Street in Zhili). At that time, every household there had to pull the ox cart to Spilling Road in Anxiang Mountain to get water. Over time, the place was called Chinatown.

Chinatown can be divided into four communities with different styles: Niuche Road, Zhili Yayi Street, Tanjung Bage and Wuji Bashu Road. Dingganu Street/Smith Street is the main activity center of Chinatown.

It's worth mentioning that Chinatown is not a place where Chinese people live. In Chinatown, the Abramhui Church next to Yayi Street, the Jameihui Church on Qiaonan Road and the Mariamman Temple have witnessed the harmonious coexistence of multiple races in Singapore.

The trip to Little India will give you a strong shock to your senses! First of all, there is a strong smell of spices and Molly flowers, followed by the glitter of silverware, bronzes and traditional gold jewelry, as well as the dazzling colors of sari silk, which is dazzling and dazzling.

In 1819, when Sir Raffles sailed to Singapore, he was accompanied by many Indian assistants and soldiers. After that, more Indian immigrants came to Singapore to make a living, some became coolies in building roads, some engaged in laundry, and some got important positions in government agencies.

Today, Little India is full of charm, and it is the meeting point of Indian ethnic groups in Singapore. During festival of lights in October and November (impromptu teaching of Hanukkah), the whole of Little India will become a fabulous world with gorgeous decorations and bright lights.
