Property Overview
Located in the heart of Singapore’s historic Chinatown, this 4.5-storey conservation shophouse is within walking distance of Telok Ayer, Maxwell, and Tanjong Pagar MRT stations. Chinatown is renowned for its rich cultural heritage, and Amoy Street is a testament to this vibrant history.
Amoy Street has a fascinating history dating back to the early 19th century. Named after the Chinese port city of Xiamen, it was originally part of a bustling trading hub where Chinese immigrants established various businesses, from provision shops to textile stores. Over the years, Amoy Street evolved into a center for traditional trades, including tea houses, Chinese medicine shops, and even opium dens. The street’s architecture draws inspiration from the ‘Wu Dian Shi’ in Jin Jiang, Xiamen, featuring elements of ancient buildings from the Tang Dynasty up to 1300 years ago, showcasing the Southern-Fujian Style.
