#wheretogo visiting Singapore in October and thinking of a unique place to go? head to Wunderground which is a pop up event that’s happening for the whole of October now! the festival was initially located at orchard emerald hill but it will be shifted to Tampines west in the next coming weeks. at the event, you will be able to explore many different workshops on site, such as perfume making, tarot reading, skin analysis (it is free!!) and many other shops selling crystals, jewellery and All! not to worry, you will not go hungry. there are more than 10 different food stores here. I tried the seafood paella which was generous with the ingredients. their drinks such as green milk tea was also refreshing under the hot summer heat! also had other mains such as the potato rosti with sausage and it was super crispy! the crispy chicken bun with cheese was also super satisfying. overall a nice place to enjoy with your friends and family. there is also live music available!

Address - 5 Emerald Hill Road (299289) Ambience - cocktail bar and lounge Highlights - 1-for-1 martinis & fried chicken wings Average Price per pax - 💵💵💵💵/5 Rating - 🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸 Opening hours - daily from 12noon till 2am except for Fridays and Saturdays till 3am. As the name suggests, it’s the same as the address. It is one of the earliest bar/lounge in this famous conservation area hence the very unique Peranakan shophouse design on the facade and the retro Chinese interiors with the red lanterns. It was an after-conference cocktail to relax and network hence we were able to enjoy the happy hour pricing. Not sure about the prices though as it’s courtesy of the organisers. Very nice place and I love the ambience. We had the upper level all to ourselves. They have outdoor seating too. Good for people watch. The bartenders and wait staff assigned to our group are very experienced and service generally were quite fast. We love the 1-for-1 martinis which is really a very good deal. Also had the fish & chips, potato wedges, deep prawn tails for that calcium boost, thin and crispy pizzas and the famously yummy prawn-paste fried chicken wings. Our table of 10 gobbled down 4 baskets of fried chicken wings! On top of other finger food! You can imagine how yummy it is. Missing it now as I write… Not sure how crowded it may be at night after usual dinner hours but I’m sure to go back in the afternoon for the 1-for-1 martinis and fried chicken wings till their happy hour ends. #mustdo #mustvisit #mustdrink #bar #lounge #emeraldhill #happyhour

Brimming with influence from the Chinese baroque and European style in its Architecture, Emerald Hill is a secret treasure hiding in the corner of our beloved national shopping district, Orchard Road. The history of Emerald Hill dates back to 1837 when it was supposed to be a nutmeg and fruit Orchard and the Terrace houses only started until the 1900 in its original form as we see today. The current Emerald Hill is still a residential area for some and it has also turned some into shop houses of bars fueling those with the thirst of the Happy Hour, jewellery store along with others and the giant buildings of Singapore’s famous shopping district wrapped around this hill. #cityscapes

This is a quaint little side street off on side of Orchard Road, it is a residential area full of old style Singapore shop house houses that are actually cultural heritage, so the outside has to remain authentic and the owners have to keep the historical architectural style. Now, the location is prime real estate, so the houses are owned by wealthy individuals and when you take a stroll and examine them from the sidewalk, you can see that most are luxuriously decorated, a few have small courtyard gardens with a driveway, usually occupied by a Ferrari or a Lamborghini or some other expensive car. It is a refreshing stroll as it is so quiet, almost no traffic and once you enter, after a few steps you feel like you are in another place, not in bustling Singapore. Photographers will find interesting motifs for their curious lenses. #maydaytrip #rediscoversg #urbanexplorer

#cityscape #singapore #awesomepic Singapore stands as a global icon of urban innovation, seamlessly blending its rapid modernization with a strong commitment to preserving its cultural and environmental heritage. Known for its towering green skyscrapers and sustainable urban planning, the city-state has become a shining example of how progress and nature can coexist in harmony. Yet, amid this green metropolis lies a rich, colorful cultural heritage that has been carefully preserved: the unique charm of Peranakan architecture. Peranakan buildings, with their ornate facades, vibrant tiles, and intricate carvings, offer a glimpse into Singapore’s past, reflecting the blend of Chinese, Malay, and European influences that shaped the island’s multicultural identity. These architectural gems, found primarily in areas like Katong and Joo Chiat, stand as living monuments to the rich Peranakan heritage. They provide a stunning contrast to the city’s modern skyline, a beautiful reminder of tradition in the heart of a futuristic city. What makes Singapore truly unique is its ability to integrate both its green ambitions and cultural preservation. With vertical gardens, rooftop parks, and eco-friendly infrastructure embedded into the cityscape, Singapore has earned its place as one of the world’s greenest cities. Yet, walking through its streets, one can still find rows of brightly-colored Peranakan shophouses, standing proud amidst the sleek skyscrapers. It’s a delicate balance of old and new, where green living thrives alongside history. Singapore’s transformation into a green city didn’t happen overnight. The government’s sustained efforts in eco-friendly development, such as the ambitious Green Plan 2030, have shaped a city that prioritizes sustainability. Beyond the iconic Marina Bay Sands and towering Supertrees, there’s a deep-rooted focus on renewable energy, energy-efficient buildings, and abundant green spaces that make the city truly unique. From solar panels on high-rises to electric vehicle infrastructure, Singapore’s approach to sustainability is setting a benchmark for cities worldwide. The Peranakan neighborhoods, like Emerald Hill and Chinatown, play a crucial role in preserving Singapore’s cultural soul. Rows of Peranakan shophouses, painted in soft pastels and adorned with intricate details, evoke the vibrant spirit of the early Peranakan community. These buildings, often converted into trendy cafes, boutique hotels, or shops, serve as a living testament to Singapore’s history, while attracting both locals and tourists with their unique charm. What makes these Peranakan enclaves so special is how they’ve been preserved amidst the green revolution. The city planners have ensured that the unique charm of these historical buildings isn’t lost amid Singapore’s quest for modernity. Instead, these spaces have been seamlessly integrated into a broader green framework.

The neatly decorated single-family villa reveals that many people still live on the Emerald Mountain Road, and it is a non-rich and expensive person. Because many luxury cars are parked next to the villa. This gorgeous decorative faade, the architectural style of the colonnade and the tiling of the exterior wall is always indifferent. The entire Emerald Mountain Road is full of tranquility and coziness, almost no visitors, and the filming effect is good!
