Have you imagined yourself doing shots, grinding to electrifying rock music, chilling out al fresco, eating meals from every corner of the world, shopping, or having a rejuvenating spa inside a formal Catholic Convent?
If not, you better feed on that curiosity at Chijmes Singapore.
How to get there
Chijmes is located at 30 Victoria Street, Singapore. To reach the place, you take the MRT and get off at City Hall Station. From there, you simply take a walk along Stamford Road, turn right towards Victoria Street and from there it would be easy to locate Chijmes. Or you can take the buses 7, 14, 14A, 14e, 16, 36, 36A, 36B, 111, 128, 131, 162, 162M and 175. But hey, don?t look for an extra high rise complex or a stunning atrium, rather approach that Gothic styled church and witness the mysteries it unfolds.
You don?t need to wear Sunday Dress or a priest?s robe. Smart casual will do while there are some establishments that would welcome you in your shorts, flip-flops, or sandals, with your shirt on of course.
Chijmes opens it doors at 11 AM and ends at 10 PM to late night, depending on the pubs, boutiques, or stores you?re in.
