From secret societies to sacred shrines, Chinatown’s got stories hiding behind every lantern.
Think you know Chinatown? Think again.
This isn’t just a heritage walk - it’s a street-smart scavenger hunt through Singapore’s largest historic district, led by the ever-curious Void Deck Cat. Weave through alleyways once ruled by clans and coolies, decode temple carvings and mural mysteries, and unlock surprise treats hidden among shophouses and shadowy pasts. Chinatown’s no sleepy souvenir stop - it’s a living, breathing time machine with secrets to spare.
