My favorite neighborhood in Singapore - Tiong Bahru

#新加坡景点 Tiong Bahru, as one of the oldest and most distinctive residential areas in Singapore, has now become synonymous with trendy cafes and independent shops. In addition to these, there are local parks and traditional hawker food centers, which are really full of life. The buildings here adopt the modern streamlined design style of the 1930s, and most of them retain the characteristics of the pre-World War II period. The Brutalist architectural movement that emerged after the war led to the use of more lines than other designs and enhanced geometric elements. Spiral staircases, round terraces, airplane buildings, horseshoe buildings, etc. are all characterized by simple long lines and curved structures. Here, authentic local coffee shops and trendy brunch coexist harmoniously. Walking in the streets and alleys, you can smell the strong local customs on one side and the fashionable aroma of coffee on the other. This place really shows another side of Singapore, and it is very close to life, and you can feel the strong sense of fireworks everywhere. If you also want to experience a different Singapore, you must come to Tiong Bahru!
