ABOUT US

Nestled in the bustling streets of Singapore’s Chinatown neighbourhood, the Chinatown Heritage Centre comprises three beautifully restored shophouses across three levels, serving as your gateway to the rich stories, spirited culture, and resilience of the community that built this historic district. It is the only place in Singapore that has meticulously recreated the original interiors of its 1950s shophouse tenants, offering an authentic glimpse into the lives of Chinatown's early residents.

Through immersive exhibits, poignant narratives, and vibrant programmes, the CHC brings Chinatown's colourful past to life, showcasing the area's dynamic evolution and connecting its past with the present.
