Live, Work, Play - the Singapore Way! (A walk through Chinatown and the City)

How do we live? 
Where do we play?
What are our favourite food? 

Are you curious how Singaporeans 'Live, Work and Play'?  In this walking tour through Chinatown, the Central Business District and down the shorelines of the Singapore River, you will step into the shoes of the locals immersing yourself in the Singaporean life while hearing inspiring stories on what shaped Singapore's success as an urban city.

Starting from Chinatown MRT station, we will visit the nearby  housing estates and a food centre.  Be inspired by Singapore's 'Housing Story' and get few recommendations for hawker food that meets Michelin-standards.  

Next, transcend to the past and listen to personal stories of the guide who lives in the area where squatters and vices abound.  Be intrigued by the designs of shophouses and skyscrapers at the same time.  

While in the area, we will visit the Yueh Hai Ching Temple, Singapore's own Temple of Love.  A national monument nestled among office buildings, the temple is a must-visit for anyone seeking divine favour in the voyage of love.

After seeing the tallest office towers in the city, we stroll along Singapore River.  Listen to the stories of 'The River Clean Up' and the tales of old where the river was once the lifeline of the island.  We will cover stories of how the river has been transformed to be relevant for us to live and play today.

We walk through the grand Fullerton Hotel and make our way to the Merlion Park, where we will capture the memorable moments of Singapore!  Be awed by the infamous Merlion and we will finish the Singapore Story with the picturesome view of Marina Bay.
