Chijmes - Tingle Your Sensations

Chijmes' is a building complex located in the Central Business District of the island nation

, Singapore. It was constructed to be used as a Catholic Convent, and was used in that respect for well over a century. The complex comprised a finely designed Gothic style chapel, orphanage, dormitory and convent quarters. This entire complex has now evolved into a lifestyle centre where people wine and dine, shop and even tie the knot.

The chapel building has been renovated and improved, but the Gothic stained glass and domed ceiling remain as they were a century ago, and is now the country's most sought after location for marriage ceremonies. Chijmes' legendary history and fairy tale like atmosphere make it the perfect place to fall in love all over again. The chapel premises are also used to stage concerts, musicals and recitals.

During both the day and night, crowds of people gather to shop, relax, go on long energizing walks through its beautifully landscaped gardens and visit the art gallery, which was formerly the convent quarters. When the skies dim, the faint glow that emanates from the buildings adds a winsome touch to the courtyard, which is lined with restaurants and draws a host of people. The restaurants' menus gather tastes from the far ends of the globe, with Brazilian, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, French and Japanese food outlets. Once the cocktails, wines, whiskeys and vodka are added, the arbiters of food will find that their insatiable appetites can be satisfied here.

For a cocktail party on the lawn, a romantic dinner under the stars, a theatre performance in the open air or even a fun-filled night out at a club or pub, Chijmes is the perfect place in Singapore. Singapore serviced apartments are an alternative to hotel accommodation which are increasingly favoured by high-end and business travelers. The Ascott Singapore Raffles Place in particular, is a luxury serviced apartment Singapore whose plush settings are a worthy complement to the beauty of your Chijmes exploration.
