Paya Lebar (EW8)
This ethnic enclave of the Malays emanates old-world charm. Right in its midst is the Malay Village, a showcase of traditional business and cultural activities which is a throwback to the good old kampong days. Its shops display a potpourri of items from handicrafts, rugs and fabrics to furniture and antiques.
Drop by the wet market (currently under renovation) and indulge in the smells of cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg. Skirting the market are shops where you can pick up CDs of both traditional and modern Malay "keroncong" music for memories of your holiday in Singapore.
Pop into the modern Joo Chiat Complex and be dazzled by the widespread array of textiles, clothes and jewelleries.
