Singapore's Top 5 Museums

Fashionistas and shopaholics have been trooping to Singapore for years, lured by its many shopping malls that offer every brand, and labels that fulfill the (shopaholics') hearts' desires.

Bai Batik Workshop

On a crisp, cool day in southern China we follow a woman from the local Bai ethnic minority through the backstreets of Xizhou Township. After meeting us in the local marketplace, she leads us to her courtyard home, where we enter through a crowded workroom piled high with folded cloth, and emerge into a sunny inner courtyard space. We duck under drying lines laden with deep blue, dripping fabric.
The Bai people are descendants of the ancient Ji who inhabited the Huangshui River area about 2,200 years ago. Today the Bai population of 1,858,000 live in four provinces – Yunnan, Guishou, Sichuan and Hunan.
