Peranakans are people of mixed Chinese and Malay/Indonesian heritage with a vibrant and rich culture. Also known as Babas (males) and Nonyas (females), they have created a unique lifestyle with their distinctive cuisine, dressing, furniture, homes, customs and traditions through the generations. This rich legacy continues to thrive here in Singapore and elsewhere in Malacca and Penang. Read more about the Peranakan culture here
