Your Guide to Haji Lane

If you want to leave the busier street of Bugis, Singapore, saunter down the hipster-famous Haji Lane for a relaxed and youthful vibe, trendy cafés, striking murals, and fusion restaurants. Haji is an Arabic term that refers to someone who has completed the pilgrimage to Mecca, and in the 1800s, the houses on Haji Lane were used as lodges by Haji pilgrims. Today, Haji Lane’s long, narrow streets are bursting with colors, lined with artsy boutiques and shophouses. 

Huddled in the Kampong Glam neighborhood of Singapore, all the turns and thrills of Haji Lane will surely mesmerize culture cravers and those looking for lively hangout spots.
