What people say

"Fun fact: the former house of Tan Teng Niah used to be all white – hard to believe when you look at its colourful facade today. Said to be the last Chinese villa of its kind in Little India, it was built by businessman Tan Teng Niah for his beloved wife, and was only given a makeover when the house was restored for commercial use in the 1980s. "

"Built in 1900, the former house of Tan Teng Niah is the last surviving Chinese villa in Little India. It embodies an often overlooked story when small Chinese businessmen operated in this area. Now it mainly serves as a landmark. "
