Peranakan Place

Peranakan Place is a conserved row of six two-storey shophouses at 180 Orchard Road in Singapore's Orchard district, at the entrance to Emerald Hill Road. Built in 1902 and later restored, it showcases Straits Chinese Peranakan architectural details with ornate facades and colourful tiles. Now housing restaurants, bars and shops, it is part of the Emerald Hill Conservation Area and offers visitors a glimpse of early 20th-century residential architecture amid modern Orchard Road.

Visitors can expect a short row of six restored two-storey shophouses with ornate Peranakan facades, pastel colours, decorative tiles and timber shutters at the junction of Orchard Road and Emerald Hill Road. The ground floors house restaurants, cafes and bars with outdoor seating, while the exterior and five-foot way are open for sightseeing and photography. The setting contrasts heritage architecture with the modern Orchard Road shopping belt, adjacent to the residential conservation streets of Emerald Hill.

Built in 1902 as a row of six two-storey residential shophouses at the foot of Emerald Hill. Part of the early 20th-century development of the Orchard and Emerald Hill area. Later conserved as part of the Emerald Hill Conservation Area and restored in the 1980s to retain Peranakan architectural features, reflecting the residential history of the area before Orchard Road became a commercial belt.

Represents Straits Chinese Peranakan heritage through its architecture, facade ornamentation and shophouse typology. Contributes to the Emerald Hill Conservation Area which preserves the historic residential character and Peranakan cultural identity within central Singapore.
