Bugis Street Shopping District is celebrated throughout Asia as a destination for bargain hunters. Redeveloped in the 1980s, the area had been a well-known nightly meeting spot for transgender people, but has now been renovated into a premier shopping port of call. Given the wide range of shops here, it's no surprise that everyone is catered for: luxury shops and literature, music and food. This is also an excellent place to bring the whole family.The charming cobbled streets will need a few hours of your time to explore. Follow the locals' example, and avoid the street-level shops aimed at tourists – instead, head upstairs for affordable buys and a choice of genuine goods. Traditional art, famous brands, the latest tunes, books and films: all are available here.After you've experienced Bugis Street in the daytime, make sure to come back in the evening to see a whole new side. As dusk falls, join the crowds as the street throngs with street food vendors, along with those selling artisan crafts and one-off souvenirs. Of the local specialities on offer, braised duck or a bowl of laksa are highly recommended, and you should also try a drink of one of the scores of juices available.The shopping area is in the city centre and is easily walkable from hotels in this area. Parking on the street is available in the surrounding area, and Bugis Street can also be reached by bus or MRT. Open every day, but individual shops have varying opening hours.
