If you would like to learn more about the history, culture, and heritage of the Peranakans (locally born descendants of the Chinese who settled in Singapore and Malaysia during the late 19th century), you should add a visit to the Peranakan Museum to your Singapore itinerary. The museum is home to an impressive collection of objects that document every facet of Peranakan life, explaining everyday rituals such as weddings, language and dress, religion, and much more. You can join a guided tour (offered in English, Mandarin, Japanese, and French) to fully appreciate the history and significance of the exhibits. After your tour, you can taste typical Peranakan cuisine at the on-site restaurant.
