The hill became known as Ann Siang Hill after it came to be owned by Chia Ann Siang who built his house and estate on the site.
A Cantonese burial ground, one of the oldest Chinese burial grounds in Singapore, was located at the foot of this hill where it met Mount Erskine and was in use until 1867. Vibrant and cosy, Ann Siang Hill, the one-way road in Chinatown, is not only a spot where you can find a piece of history and restored historic shophouses, here, the old marries the new, as relics of Singapore’s rich history can be found between many restaurants and bars.
