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.
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
