Cultural Melting Pot: Kampong Glam & Little India
Experience the vibrant cultural enclaves of Singapore. Wander from the historic Sultan Mosque and the colorful street art of Haji Lane, all the way to the bustling streets and beautiful temples of Little India.
- Sultan Mosque Singapore — Welcome to Kampong Glam! The majestic Sultan Mosque, built in 1824 and rebuilt in 1932, is the focal point of the historic Malay district. Its massive golden domes are decorated with glass bottle ends donated by poor Muslims.
- Haji Lane Singapore — Just a short walk away is Haji Lane, Singapore's original indie neighborhood. Once an empty street of pre-war shophouses, it is now famous for its spectacular wall murals and boutique stores.
- Malay Heritage Centre Singapore — This building once housed the royal residence of Kampong Gelam, home to the Malay Sultans of Singapore. Today, it serves as a museum celebrating the history and culture of the Malay community.
