Sago street located in the heart of Chinatown, very close to a Buddhist temple, one of the most beautiful and fascinating in the whole city. Is one of the many access points to Chinatown, very picturesque and choreographic, at first impression I was impressed by the many colours which accompany this road, with its terraced houses, to the countless stalls,...

Sago street is one of streets in Chinatown, there are many lovely old houses here and heaps of places to eat and drink, it's usually very full of tourists.

Just like Chinatown, it's a must see place to grab tasty food, refreshing drinks and there's plenty of shops to grab your interest.

Very interesting street to stumble across whilst walking around Chinatown. Take the time to read the plaque and reflect on how this street used to be. It is now full of juice bars and I highly recommend stopping for a refreshing fresh coconut!

I wouldn't have realised that this was the Street of the Dead if it wasn't for the sign stating this fact. It is just a typical street in Chinatown and, as with all the streets in this area, I found it fascinating. The attached photo describes what Sago Street used to be up until 1961 when death houses were outlawed.
