Shophouse heritage walk with fun murals!

#familytrips2024 The historic area of Telok Ayer houses many charming shophouses jazzed up with interesting murals, making for a perfect destination for a weekend photo walk! 🙏 Many tourists will undoubtedly head to Thian Hock Keng Temple, but did you know that the back of the temple houses an impressive and extremely detailed mural? Walking along the length of the wall and taking in the details, you're transported to the Singapore of yesteryear, bustling with merchants and coolies. The work is by famed Singapore artist Yip Yew Chong, who has a love for details. Tip: There is a cafe that just opened inside the temple, if you need a quick break to hydrate, this is the place! 💧 Especially important if travelling with the elderly or young children as the rest of the walk is up and down a hill! From the mural, walk along Amoy Street and head towards Club Street, where more murals await. One I would highlight is by the side of the Goh Loo Club, which literally peels away the layers to show what transpired in the club in the old days, where famous figures mingled. #singaporetrip
