On the south side of the Singapore River is Boat Quay, crammed with old shophouses that have been converted into various establishments. Boat Quay has a historical significance in Singapore's history - the area was a busy port and the shophouses were once occupied by Chinese merchants.
Today Boat Quay is more known for its restaurants and bars with a couple of souvenir shops and convenience stores in between. Plenty of Chinese restaurants here and seafood seems to be the specialty. Quiet during the day, but the crowd generally picks up as evening approaches and gets lively.
