Free DIY – Singapore very free line (3)

First day: 2004-11-27 Saturday, 08: 40-14: 00

Fourth station: Chinatown Chinatown

As planned, the first thing to go to change money, money makes them:) and then we begin to is an attractive place for Chinese Chinese – Chinatown.

Go to Chinatown can sit MET, to CHINATOWN, NE4, but we chose to walk. One is to look at the roadside scenery, the second is so close to the road to transfer, then thought that transfer would like Shanghai so troublesome. In fact, only 20 minutes, we'll go there. Because of the time very early, many stores do not open the door, or see other travels that pedicabs. Find a snack bar, the point of the famous ' trotters, there is a plate prawn noodles, spent 13 RMB yuan, equivalent to 60, antics, a breakfast only, Ah, really expensive. But the taste good, ' trotters is black pepper seems to be a bit more, put a little spicy and hot.

The entire layout of Chinatown, feeling like an old, ancient China, or compare the South of China, there are many pawnshops have a lot of jewelry store, and Feng Shui Museum:) find Pearl square for good money (100 RMB 19.95 SGD, the Arab Street is an Exchange Office to see 100 Yuan for SGD 19.90.

It seems that as long as not airport are also dropping), we went to the will of the original Museum to Chinatown Heritage Centre, tickets $ 8 (SGD), as this is our only buy tickets. Just came across a group of local students organizations come to visit, very busy. The door to selling all kinds of souvenirs, I like collecting playing cards, bite bought 2 pay ($ a, 2 pay 6.9 10 Yuan, Chinese people would do business with AH).

The fifth station: small Little India India

By MRT from Chinatown (NE4) to little India (NE7), and immediately see a completely different picture.

Yet the MRT station, see the platform side wall many decorative painting styles of India. Go to the street and saw a lot of people are dressed in traditional costume, India women whether young or old, fat, thin, are dressed in beautiful Sally, men's wear it like a movie the same clothes, we only have a head on top at the cloth wrapped around a hat (don't know what is the scientific name), but there is no time for taking pictures, he had gone through. We first go to the map marked with "A" logo "little India" spots, get there only to find there is a very big India markets, selling all kinds of little shop of India gadgets, there is more to eat, where many people in India have breakfast:)

According to the map along SERANGOON ROAD straight North, we went to a larger India Temple "Villa maca, Benjamin Hindu temple", here are the people to worship a push from India.

I am unclear on, off shoe into it. Then see to everyone in India of dedication, first with the right touch threshold, and then touch a door bell, door and exit. Inside the bodhisattvas with us in China saw the Temple of very different, I could clearly see wear yellow robes of the white powder coated in their foreheads or between the eyes. They face the bodhisattva piety, no one three nine Al sought is stood silently read the bodhisattva. If someone in front, quietly, waiting for the previous person somehow and then past.

Don't know India is not a universal believed God, and only see the side of the many small bright wreath sale, vendors, business is also good.

Originally thought that India people love beautiful. Then know that the wreath is dedicated to the Temple of the Buddha. At the roadside a shop, you may just have no business, an India people over a pile of yellow thick belt-like things devout prayer, let us look at both can't bear to go in and disturb him, not knowing that his business is affected.

Because it is not clear, the God of India culture, would not know that they are praying or repentance.

We came to a loss of all the "Ah-back to the Church" Franz Kafka. Wanted church spire should have been, not the Church Dome, and the palaces ejector Aladdin. The Church also needs to take your shoes off, and the men and women have different paths in. We in it at the baggage claim area is finds there is a chapel attached primary school, India with a group of children, but are women, and each package. Also encountered a man in a black robe Mont head face of India woman, only to reveal a pair of beautiful eyes, like a fairy tale, I've seen. She quickly went into a classroom, then no, we haven't made into license also had to go.

Originally thought that the Chinese people's Chinatown saw Chinese characters of the shop, you do not want the little India there are many, and that Chinese characters in the Hall of shops all are gold store, really.

Sixth station: Arab Street

From India to the Arab Street is easy, 10 minutes away.

We first went there in the "Sudan back to church." Our luck than last time travels in a Shenzhen people well, today is Friday, the opening to the outside world. Door sat a very much like the old days fangyetan, he used the English told us to take your shoes off, then the shoes come in and visit. The main entrance of the Church has another man in a table where the name came from on registration and other simple information, and then ask us to put on them with a guy like me in Barber's often wear robes, put our arms, legs, and other great care, thenightbeingdarkandfrosty package. Inside empty, we took some characteristics with their Arab symbol on the left. Shoes when the old man's passion for telling us you can go across the street.

The original Street opposite is another attraction "Kampong Glam Sultan Palace".

The map identifies so far 2 spots actually separated by a road! there are a lot of people dressed in national costumes, there is a team of 4-5 people little band in the grass playing folk music. We are guessing is not that we are getting married, the couple dress very beautiful girl invited us to a house inside the show. In the country have had countless traps we alsoGuess will not be too expensive, or require us to buy what they tell us that you do not want money, everything is free. Just get tired too, since about 40 from 8 points out of the hotel to the now (nearly 12 points), we almost always walk, and then we went to see the rest, by the way. The performance of the content is a folk dance, the men and women are very beautiful, very good, jump back we introduced their various made of bamboo national musical instruments. There is no cost to finish, it seems that we have too little (blush). After the end of the performance they invited all the audience took with them, of course, is free of charge. We visited the introduction next year is how to come to the Arabs and settled in Singapore's historic pictures gallery and feel free to shop around for a while and left the warm hospitality of the Arab:)

Seventh station: Singapore River

From an Arab near MRT Bukit Shi (EW12) came to Raffles square (EW14), we walked along the Singapore River walk to the bar street.

This is one of the bars along the Singapore River gather, it is conceivable that evening here certainly is bustling. We come here first, because the hungry (14 points), the second is not want to stay in front of a Shanghai tourists not in Singapore-a cup of coffee. So we found a plus the river location of store point 2 package and 2 drink, spent $ 22, you can also taste, price is not corrupt. Singapore River, not very clean, no crystal-clear, but also not dirty, no peculiar smell. The picture is very pretty, night lights on both sides of a license, certainly more charm.

Rest for a while, we walked to the Fullerton in front of a suspension bridge.

Just encountered one may come from Taiwan team, speak not a Chinese. Listen to a guided tour free of charge. Originally this inconspicuous suspension bridge is Singapore's oldest bridge, already has more than 100 years of history. In the vicinity of the bridge and there are many bronze statue, basically are Chinese. The most fun is prepared by a group of children near the River undress statue of swimming and diving, children's expression is very rich, action is also very interesting, especially off half of exposed half-ass, lol, I ran over to shoot a pretended to play his ass photo.
