The term Peranakan can be translated from Malay to 'locally born', which refers to the descendants of foreign traders who married local women and settled in South Asia ages ago. If you'd love to learn about Singapore's Peranakan culture, the Peranakan Museum is where you should go. Here, you'll be able to see the world's finest collection of Peranakan artefacts including jewellery, textiles, and even furniture in three permanent exhibition spaces. Many aspects of this hybrid culture, consisting of Malay, Chinese, and Indian elements, can be observed at this museum via interactive displays. One of the most eye-catching exhibits includes a lavish twelve-day Peranakan wedding.
