Inside the Singaporean Chinese

Description

In partnership with the Singapore Chinese Culture Centre, starting off with the SINGAPO人 permanent exhibition which sets the context of the tour,

we continue exploring the themes of the exhibition zones by embarking on a walking trail to Telok Ayer – the backbone of the development of the Chinese migrant community in early Singapore.

  • What Makes Us, “Us” – Behind the skyscrapers, conserved buildings, sculptures, and green spaces is the story of how urban planners shape our Singapore image on the global stage;
  • Beyond Generations – What roles did clans play in shaping the Chinese Singaporean identity and how much of these remains for us?
  • When Cultures Meet – How did a Methodist church and mosque come to be in the heart of Telok Ayer? What role does a Chinese temple play in the past and present?
  • Made in Singapore – Do you know that local favorite Hainanese Chicken Rice is a made-in-Singapore dish? Indulge in some local delicacies and learn about their origins.
