Hidden shopping gems
Haji Lane

Discover the narrowest
shopping lane in the city

Haji Lane is literally just a narrow lane of pre-war shophouses, or so it seems. What really lie behind the walls are many quaint local boutiques offering a mix of the latest fashion wear and accessories including made-in-Singapore designs. There are also excellent vintage shops where you can find a fascinating stash of contemporary, quirky garments, trinkets, vinyl records and even furniture. Some notable shops to keep a lookout for are The Blog Shop, Straits Record and White Room, just to name a few.

Ann Siang Hill

Shop for the unusual and quirky
at Ann Siang Hill

Once the homeground of traditional Chinese clan associations and exlusive social clubs, Ann Siang Hill has undergone a makeover and now spots a variety of quirky shopping boutiques, cafes and watering holes. In fact, some of the old character still remains, which makes Ann Siang Hill such a charming place to spend the day.
