A short lane in Kampong Glam, lined with small independent shops, cafes and restaurants, and known for its painted walls. Reviewers describe a historic Arab quarter to wander, with shops selling Persian carpets, Turkish lamps and other Middle Eastern goods. Murals are the thing people photograph most, and several say the lane is worth seeing on the way to Sultan Mosque. The restaurants are a draw in their own right, and reviewers say there are plenty to choose from. The lane is busiest in the evening, when the nightlife picks up. Early visitors found many of the shops still closed, so the lane is livelier later in the day. Within a kilometre there are five other tourist attractions. Of the three with ten or more reviews, none rate higher than this one. The nearby mural sites include Murals at Muscat Street, which has the most reviews. Haji Lane Back Lane is at 51 Arab Street, in Kampong Glam.
