Seems extremely touristy to me, but there are still parts of it where old people like to hang out and do their shopping. Those with a Chinese/Asian background can easily give this a miss, but if you’re new to Asian culture I guess its worth checking out. There’s a really good dessert stall on Temple Street selling a mango and pomelo dessert. Divine!

There are also some cool boutique hotels and bars in the area. The New Majestic Hotel is one of them.
