Discover the world of the Majies, the dedicated amahs who shaped generations of families in Singapore. This tour explores their lives, cultural practices, and enduring legacy.

This special tour is a programme of the Singapore Heritage Fest, supported by the National Heritage Board, co-organised by Bridging Generations and Qixi Fest.

TOUR HIGHLIGHTS

Guided by a “Majie”: Dressed in the iconic white samfu and black pants, your guide will transport you back in time.

Explore Their Legacy:
Wander through the very streets where the Majies once lived and worked. These strong, independent women formed resilient, close-knit communities while serving as amahs (domestic helpers) for generations of Singaporean families.

Unveil Their Rituals and Traditions: Visit historical sites tied to Majie heritage — where vows of celibacy were once taken and rituals observed. Hear stories of sisterhood, mutual support, and the festive traditions that bound them together — some of which still continue to resonate in contemporary Singapore.

Flavours of Home: Originating from the cradle of Cantonese cuisine and a UNESCO City of Gastronomy, Majies brought with them rich culinary traditions. Discover the stories behind treasured recipes, and see how their flavours continue to shape Singapore’s food heritage today.
