Sri Mariamman Temple is Singapore’s oldest Hindu temple, founded in 1827 by Naraina Pillai, an early South Indian pioneer. Located in Chinatown, it’s renowned for its vibrant Dravidian architecture and serves as a spiritual and cultural hub for the Tamil Hindu community.

(Former Coolie House & Former Opium Den)
Pagoda Street in Singapore’s Chinatown is a heritage-rich lane once known for its coolie houses and opium dens that served newly arrived Chinese laborers in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, the street is lined with restored shophouses and bustling souvenir shops, with markers highlighting its past as a former coolie house and opium den site.

Sago Lane in Chinatown was once nicknamed the “Street of the Dead” for its late‑19th‑century death houses where impoverished Chinese migrants went to spend their final days.  Most of the lane was cleared for redevelopment in the 1970s, and the short stretch that survives now hosts festive stalls at Chinese New Year, its sombre history remembered through heritage trails and archives.

Stop 5

Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum is a majestic, Tang dynasty–inspired Chinese Buddhist temple in Singapore’s Chinatown, purpose-built in 2007 to enshrine what is believed to be a canine tooth relic of the historical Buddha.
