But don't let the old-world charm fool you - Kampong Glam is also home to a host of trendy cafes, bars, and restaurants that cater to a hip and trendy crowd. As you explore, you'll find a mix of traditional businesses like spice shops and textile stores alongside more modern establishments like artisanal coffee shops and trendy cocktail bars. No visit to Kampong Glam would be complete without stopping by the iconic Sultan Mosque, which serves as the spiritual center of the neighborhood. So if you're looking to experience a side of Singapore that's full of character and flavor, make sure to add Kampong Glam to your itinerary.

Little India
90 min

This vibrant neighborhood is a food lover's paradise, with an array of tantalizing flavors and aromas that will transport you straight to the streets of Mumbai.

And don't forget to check out the stunning Hindu temples, which are a testament to the neighborhood's rich cultural history.
