Year-round, but Feb–Apr are often relatively drier. For atmosphere: late afternoon to early evening for golden-hour photos and café hopping; night for bars and a livelier vibe.

Tropical: hot and humid year-round with short, sudden showers. Typical temperatures range from 25–32°C (77–90°F). Bring rain protection and stay hydrated.

No entry fee to the lane itself. Shops and cafés typically open around 10:00 and close between 20:00–23:00 depending on the venue; bars may stay open later. Masjid Sultan has visiting hours and may restrict access during prayer times—check ahead if you plan to enter.

Nearest MRT: Bugis (about a 5–10 minute walk) and walking from Bugis interchange or from Nicoll Highway area. Several bus routes serve Arab Street. On-street parking is limited and metered. The lane is narrow and can be crowded—most of it is pedestrian-friendly but some areas may be uneven; wheelchair access is possible in parts but can be tight.

Around 30 minutes–2 hours to explore Haji Lane itself; half a day if you include Sultan Mosque, Arab Street and the Malay Heritage Centre.

Light, breathable clothing and comfortable shoes. Dress modestly (shoulders and knees covered) if you plan to enter Masjid Sultan. Bring sunscreen, a small umbrella or light rain jacket and a portable charger for photos.

Culinary options include Middle Eastern and Malay eateries, local coffee shops and dessert spots. Try local kopi, Middle Eastern sweets and Malay dishes nearby. Souvenirs to look for: indie designer apparel, handmade jewelry, art prints, vintage clothing and locally made crafts.
