Haji Lane is one of the roads in the Kampong Glam neighbourhood of Rochor, Singapore. A narrow road, it is one way with traffic flowing from North Bridge Road to Beach Road. In between, Haji Lane also forms a junction with Baghdad Street. Two-storey shophouses with five-food ways border both sides of the road.
According to Singapore Street Names1, Haji Lane passes through land that was once owned by Arab merchant Syed Ali bin Mohamed Aljunied, and was named after the haj pilgrimage. The area was once an enclave of Arab settlers.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
