Sungei Road Thieves Market

Busiest on dry weekends, the ambience of unregulated disarray is an enjoyable antidote to the Lion City’s much-too organised malls. Vintage lovers can expect to trawl for rich pickings. On a typical afternoon, you’ll find rarities like vinyl records, a boxed set of retro Iittala glassware from Scandinavia ($10), and a charming cuckoo clock ($5).
