Trengganu Street (Chinese: 丁加奴街; pinyin: Dīngjiānú Jiē) is a street located in Chinatown within the Outram Planning Area in Singapore.
The road links Pagoda Street and Sago Street, and is intersected by Temple Street and Smith Street. A section of Trengganu Street from Pagoda Street to Smith Street was converted to a pedestrian mall in 1997, with the remaining section of the street and Sago Street also converted into a pedestrian mall in 2003 and now forms the heart of the tourist belt in Singapore's Chinatown.
