Most of Singapore’s attractions are concentrated in one area. For example, Haji Lane, Bussorah Street, Arab Street and Sultan Mosque described in this article are all in the same area. Arrange a day’s walk here for shopping and dining. It is also suitable for taking elders and children with you (including strollers), just follow us and have a look!
Singapore's one-day itinerary planning and the location of attractions
Singapore is 2.6 times the size of Taipei City. It uses subways and buses as transportation network tools, and the distribution of attractions is mainly in the urban area and the Bay Area. Therefore, we can plan a one-day itinerary to partition the pocket list and walk the area on the same day. tour.Taking this article as an example, it is not difficult for everyone to see that no matter which scenic spot you visit first, you can travel through the streets and alleys to reach other scenic spots. It does not matter the order, and you can arrange it according to your own preferences.
Novices can take the Metro Downtown Line or East West Line, get off at Bugis Station and walk there, walk to Haji Lane (Haji Lane) about 550 meters, 7 minutes away; we are staying at the nearby Andaz Hotel ( Andaz Singapore) is co-constructed with Bugis Station. It is convenient to travel to this area or take the subway to other attractions.

Haji Lane: a painted alley where bars and coffee shops gather
Singapore used to be a British colony before its independence. Therefore, this area still retains the ancient architectural structure. Haji Lane is infused with special color paintings and began to gradually enter bars, small shops, hookahs and all kinds of clothing shops, and develop alleys. Business districts and crowds of tourists, if novice readers come to Singapore to travel, it is worth making it the first place to visit in the itinerary.
I like some clothing accessories shops in this alley. The quality of the goods is very good. I started with a gray military hat, which is equivalent to about five or six hundred Taiwan dollars. I have never seen this style again in other places. It looks good when worn!In addition, if you want to buy some special small items or bags, the shopkeepers in this area have a good eye for selection. You may wish to leave more time to go to the scenic spots or dine along the route after shopping.
▲ The large murals are very good to shoot. Our family of three took many pictures here. (laugh)
▲ Various painting styles are available.
▲ Suitable for a drink, the night is more beautiful.
▲ This area is super good for shopping and it is my favorite place.
▲ Right now I feel... I will come with my sister next time. (I mean leaving Wendy to go shopping)
▲ The crowd began to gather slowly after the lights were turned on in the evening.
▲ The store will directly put the ball game for the guests to watch.
Sultan Mosque: At the local faith center, visitors can visit
According to the website of the Singapore Tourism Board, “The Sultan Mosque was built in 1824 to commemorate Singapore’s first Sultan Hussein Shah (Sultan Hussein Shah). A single-story building with a structural roof. One hundred years later, the original building was dilapidated due to disrepair. Therefore, the current mosque was designed and rebuilt in 3,000."
This mosque is also included in the cultural heritage of Singapore. There are many guides on site who can lead the tour. I should remind everyone that the visit is only open until four in the afternoon. Don’t go around here for too long like us. It’s a pity that I can’t enter the interior to shoot the interior design.
▲ Interspersed with some of the appearance of Arab Street, it is also a good subject for shooting.
Bussorah Street, Arab Street: All kinds of exotic food and shops gathering
Judging from the location of the map, after Haji Lane crosses Arab Street, there is Bussola Street. It was once called Kampong Kaji. It was the place where pilgrims from Southeast Asia began their pilgrimage to Mecca. It sells all kinds of traditional goods such as Persian carpets and Kabaya dresses, as well as hand-made perfumes, and extends to the Arab (food) street.
At the time of writing this article, I have some doubts about Arab Street. There are Arab Street and Arab Street on the map. The former is a colorful building selling about 400 kinds of Middle Eastern goods, and the latter is a gourmet restaurant with exquisite decoration. You will be there when you walk out of the Sudanese mosque, and most of the articles refer to the area of food.
We want to eat and see what is Arab/Middle Eastern cuisine. Choose a restaurant with exquisite style and walk in. Ask the clerk to recommend a few snacks. The most favorite is the spiced cheese scones, which should be brought in with spices like cumin. I really like this simple and very flavorful food. After the meal, I will go to the market and the lamp shop slowly. I really want to buy a lamp holder to commemorate it. (Of course... was stopped by Wendy)
▲ The hotel public relations told us that the window sills in this area are characteristic of Singaporean architecture and can be viewed carefully.
▲ Beautiful tiles.
▲ Chinese translation....
▲ Consumption is not expensive, you can pick a shop to sit down and have a look.
▲ Yes!All Japanese% coffees have been opened in Singapore!
Conclusion
The area introduced today is Kampong Glam, which was originally a prosperous port town in Singapore in ancient times. It was later zoned as a colony of Malays, Arabs and Bugis, plus Singaporean horses. The residence of the royal family has become a place of cultural integration. Compared with the Little India area that will be introduced later, we all prefer this place. I hope you will visit it with your heart after reading it.
