KAMPONG SPIRIT

To see the magic that ensues when art meets real life, head to Kampong Gelam and experience Southeast Asia’s first official graffiti Hall of Fame—a term urban artists use to refer to a walled space where they can paint freely. Except here, the walls refer to the 5m-high metal barriers of the construction sites for the North-South Corridor (slated for completion in 2026), which play canvas to the works of 17 Singapore-based artists, offering close to 240m of vibrant photo opportunities along Bali Lane and Ophir Road. Visitors can choose to take in the sights while in a vintage Vespa sidecar or whilst on a self-guided audio tour. For more information, visit hofvisitkamponggelam.com.sg. hof.visitkampongg
