About Golden Landmark

Golden Landmark, listed on OneMap as The Golden Landmark, is a retail and office complex at 390 Victoria Street, Singapore 188061. It stands at the corner of Victoria Street and Arab Street on the edge of Kampong Glam, in District 7 (Bugis, Beach Road, Middle Road). The shopping complex was completed in 1983 and was developed by Far East Organization. The land is held on a 99-year lease from 30 April 1981.

The mall has long served the Malay and Muslim community. Shops sell baju kurung, headscarves, bridal wear, Islamic books and jewellery, and travel agencies offer haj and umrah packages. In recent years thrift and vintage clothing stores have also moved in, which draws a younger crowd. A musollah (prayer room) is provided on the second level. The adjoining hotel tower, completed in 1988, opened as the Golden Landmark Hotel and now trades as Village Hotel Bugis.

Interesting facts

  • Before the complex was built, the site held rows of terraced shophouses and a Muslim burial ground. These were cleared in the early 1980s.

  • The hotel part of the project was finished about five years after the shops, in 1988, after delays to its construction.

  • Property records give the development a land area of 7,223 sq m and a gross floor area of 30,820 sq m.

  • The hotel's present name, Village Hotel Bugis, refers to the Bugis Street area a few minutes away rather than to Kampong Glam, where the building actually stands.
