Featuring five blocks of restored warehouses, it is home to hip entertainment, dining outlets and shops of all kinds, including second-hand and antique shops. The Satay Club with its variety of satay and barbecued seafood should not be missed. In the evening, theme pubs and bars come alive with classic rock, hard rock, the blues and music from the 60s. Named after Sir Andrew Clarke, Singapore's second governor, Clarke Quay had been the commercial centre, where an unending stream of lighters would transport their goods upriver to the very warehouses that now contain shops of every extravagant nature. Note how the Chinese and European merchants brought their own architectural styles to the area.
Visitors can also look forward to some exciting events and activities held on a regular basis.
Don't forget to catch the Chinese Street Opera every Wednesday and Friday evenings at 7.45pm. Best by taxi. Alternatively, take a river taxi from Raffles Place infront of Standard Chartered Building.
