A treasure chest of colors where retro and modern intersect, "Katong"

Katong, lined with colorful Peranakan architecture, is an area in Singapore where you can enjoy highly photogenic street walks!

Step into the alleys, and you'll find local cafes, shops, and famous eateries serving bak chor mee (minced meat noodles) and laksa, creating a unique space where retro and modern blend together🌟

We recommend taking photos against the backdrop of Peranakan tile walls, then experiencing Peranakan culture at Katong Antique House👀

It's a hidden gem perfect for those who like stylish spots that aren't overly touristy.

[Address] Around East Coast Rd, Singapore 428722
