Chinatown Shophouses(5)


More photos of shophouses. Some are used as shops, residential and offices.

The above shophouses are converted to be a boutique hotel. To know more about The Scarlet-A Boutique Hotel, you can view their website.

I love the designs of these shophouses and very fascinated by their windows. I always love taking photos of wndows and doors.

Closer look at the foral designs.

Thank you for all the nice comments. I will be finished posting all the shophouses in chinatown. Hope to take more photos of unique shophouses in another corner of Singapore. :)

the arched windows invite sketching... do artists sit and draw near these buildings?

I did not see any artists when I was there. But there are many people who take photographs.
