Haji Lane: A hidden gem of Singapore by Victoria

Singapore- Haji Lane is a narrow street in Kampong Glam housing rows of boutiques. Each of the boutiques is unique and has a wide array of fashionable wear and products. Creations made by local Singaporean designers can be bought at some of these shops. 

Haji Lane used to be an abandoned street of shop houses, which served as boarding houses for Muslim families on their pilgrimage. This place has since undergone tremendous transformation to become the youthful and vibrant scene it is today.

Haji Lane gets crowded on the weekends. It is not only popular among locals; it is also a must-go for tourists.

In our interviews, we talked to people at Haji Lane about what they liked about this hidden gem. We interviewed a diverse group of people on the street- youngsters, shop owners and foreigners. It sheds light on the attractiveness of Haji Lane and why people are drawn here.

Hear what people have to say about Haji Lane in the video:
