A banal house, without any special architecture. The only thing that makes it stand out is the bright colors it is painted in. Nothing special to do here, you walk around it a bit, take a few pictures and that's it.
This very colorful house catches the eye while walking in the Little India neighborhood. It was built in 1900 by the Chinese businessman Tan Teng Niah and it was renovated in 1980. It is now preserved with landmark status under National Heritage Board. There's nothing to visit on the inside.
This is the last remaining Chinese villa in Little India of Singapore. The architecture has been painstakingly restored featuring colourfully painted wooden windows and doors. It is now used for commercial purposes. Worth a visit if you are in the area. Otherwise there is not a lot to see other than the multicolored facade
Tan Teng Niah in Singapore is a colorful and charming spot that really stands out. The vibrant facase makes it a perfect photo opportunity, and wandering around the area gives a glimpse of local culture. A small but memorable stop that’s worth visiting while exploring the neighborhood.
This house impressed me through its wonderful colors. At least from the distance 😂. The colors are peeling and when you are close to it the beauty of it fades. But overall I was happy to see it. Unfortunately you are not allowed to visit inside, at least when I was it had signs with “no entry”. I took a peak from outside because the door was open. It looks beautiful inside but is clear that no one takes proper care of it.
