The 10 Best Things to do in Geylang East, Singapore

October 26, 2021 Roseanne Arnett

The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

The Intan

VISITS ARE STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENTS Founded in 2003, The Intan is a Peranakan heritage home-museum. The brainchild of antique collector and owner Alvin Yapp, The Intan (meaning 'rose-cut diamond' in Malay) enlightens its guests about the multi-facetted aspects of Peranakan culture through a kaleidoscope of rare historical artefacts, intriguing personal stories, and authentic dining experiences. Located in the heart of Joo Chiat, a traditional Peranakan enclave and Singapore's first heritage town (2011), The Intan offers personalised tours conducted by Alvin, which culminate with authentic Peranakan tea sessions and dinners inspired by his mother. The Intan also doubles up as a unique event space, having hosted a variety of activities that included jewellery exhibitions, art shows and violin recitals. Voted Best Overall Experience in Singapore's inaugural Museum Roundtable Awards, The Intan has been featured internationally on CNN Travel, Discovery Channel and National Geographic. Singapore Travelholic lists The Intan as the top 5 Peranakan activities to do in Singapore. With a vision to promote Peranakan culture beyond Singapore, The Intan's collection has been showcased in places such as Croatia, Hawaii, Hong Kong, Moscow, London and Barcelona.

We visited Singapore's smallest and only lived in museum called the Intan in late January. Visits are by appointments only and the live in owner and guide Alvin showed us around and chatted with us over peranakan snacks. Alvin is an avid collector and passionate about the Peranakan Culture, heritage and history. The museum is self funded and the money he collects for admission actually goes to several children's charities. Its a real gem of a place in the historic area of Joo Chiat so please support this wonderful hidden Gem in Singapore.

A Vintage Tale - World’s Wardrobe

Reviewed By glks7 - Washington DC, United States

Loved stepping into the past in this vintage shophouse. Beautifully decorated, thoughtfully curated, and a colorful feast for the eyes. So many vintage clothing, jewelry, and accessory items! The owners are kind and friendly and their shop is a bright, colorful nod to the past while still being fashion forward. I loved the interior design & decor almost as much as I loved the fashion finds. I purchased a beautiful skirt that will be a reminder of a great visit to Singapore.
