We have a mosque, a Hindu temple, a Buddhist temple and a Methodist church along a 400 metre stretch along South Bridge Road. They coexist without problem whatsoever. This is our national pride.
And they coexist harmoniously too. One of the catholic churches opens up their carpark for the mosque's congregants during Friday prayers and the mosques does the same for the Sunday service
For the longest time that spiral staircase at Fort Canning Hill was a deserted relic of Singapore red brick National Library. It became a tourist attraction after someone posted on instagram and suddenly it became an overnight sensation. Shows the power of social media.
22:21 that is a statue of a samsui woman. They were the ladies who helped build Singapore brick by brick.
U guys are lucky they just renovate the place it’s so beautiful
So much food on offer 🥰
Excuse me guys there is a lot of lighting during the rain in Singapore , and there is cases of people being stalk by lighting when they are hiding under a tree in Singapore 😮 guys
To add on to this, Singapore has one of the highest occurrences of lightning strikes in the world. Do what the locals do, take shelter in a mall, MRT station or hawker centre during thunderstorms. Lightning strikes can be deadly in Singapore and there was a year that it caused 5 deaths.
Well now we know not to wait it out under a tree next time 😮
Ya, u guys scared me of standing under the trees when there is thunder n lightning😅
Thank you and I appreciate for showing and sharing about Singapore island here and you would/will be welcome here.
Hawker centres are actually street food halls. Many of these 2nd, 3rd or 4th generation stalls were selling their food on the streets during the just after WWII in 1940s to late 1970s. They were relocated to hawker centres by the Govenment between 1970s to mid 1980s so as to improve sanitation and hygiene.
Bak Kut Teh is a pork rib soup usually accompanied with Chinese tea. "Bak Kut" is Hokkien/Teochew for Pork ribs and "Teh" refers to the Chinese tea and not the soup.
9:24 dont hide under the tree when its raining. 😱😱🚫🚫🚫⛈️⛈️⚡⚡💀🪦
We had no idea 😮
I ave always enjoyed your China vlog. I am a Singaporean, but shame on me because I hardly walk to explore some of these places in my own country, although I have driven past them. You surely made my country alluring. ❤
There is a huge underground WWII command centre complex right under your feet at Fort Canning, where the defence of Singapore was directed. It is open to visitor. It is a very important part of Singapore's history You missed it completely.
There are several other important historical relics on Fort Canning.
It is known as Battle Box. Recently refurbished and cost a tiny bit to enter.
The building with the colourful Windows is the old central police station on Hill street
Bak Kut Teh is pork rib soup but you consume it alongside a pot of Chinese kungfu tea to wash down the grease of the pork.
this is where I did my military service in 1974,now it's Fort Canning Hotel and there was an old grave yard around the hotel all the graves were remove in 1975
I like it when you say
" You name it you get it"
👍🏻🤩
Oh! Never under a tree in SG during a thunderstorm. SG is one of the lightning capitals of the world
its actually a good practice to not hide under trees during a lightning storm. lol Teh refer to tea, which you actually order alongside the pork ribs as the beverage of choice/ pairing
I grew up living in Little India! We used to go to Tekka market all the time, there are some really good stalls there, their prata is delicious.
I used to go to ballet classes in Fort Canning, but the place has long since been revamped haha. There's usually fun exhibits/shows up there!
The "Warming Rice Noodle" store that you took a shot of-- the Chinese name actually reads "Nameless Rice Noodles", lol.
The statue that you spotted at 22:23 is a samsui woman. They're known for wearing mostly blue or black clothes with a red headcloth-- they were immigrant women from China who did hard labor jobs in the early 1900s, because the British were still the masters here then and they limited male Chinese immigrants but not female ones, so a lot of women immigrated to Singapore for a better life.
Lightning strikes are a thing here so don’t stand in the open or under trees during a thunderstorm 👍
07:33 I would recommend the legendary Norris Road "chapati" at Azmi stall directly opposite that red-shirted man.
Thanks for creating yet another amazing video clip. Always looking forward to your new clips. Best wishes for good health and peace to you, lovely couple. Enjoy your trip! Cheers🍻
Another great video about Singapore! Btw you don’t actually need to buy a card to take the MRT (metro) or bus, you can simply just tap in and out with your debit card or credit card. Hopefully this tip is helpful for your next trip to Singapore ❤
Lee Kuan Yew was the first Prime Minister of Singapore, and he passed away in March 2015.
Also as you walk through the Fort Canning Gates, hidden behind one of the large doors is actually a staircase heading up to the top of the gates. It looks nicer at night!
As for Bak Kut Teh, there are many types around Singapore, from the peppery soup type, to the herbal soup type, to other variants in-between. It really needs trying out at different brands of shops to find your fave. The known brands here are Ng Ah Sio, Old Street, Song Fa, Kai Juan, and Founders' to name 5 out of many.
Oh yea lastly, check out Hong Lim Food Center next to Chinatown Point, or People's Park Complex food center. The latter has a whole bunch of stores and hidden shops upstairs.
Fort Canning Park used to be Singapore’s own imperial garden landscape in ancient times during the purported reign of the 5 kings of Singapura in the 14th century. This is the original name of this royal city state which is Sanskrit for Lion City whereas ‘Singapore’ is the anglicised term during colonial times for British administrative purposes. However, the island itself used to be called Temasek meaning seaport. There at the crest of Fort Canning Park used to sit the palace of the 5 rajas of Singapura; presently the area is protected by meshed fences but you can still see the rain catchment reservoir inside from without. Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore used to write that if fate dictated he was to die in southeast Asia, he would like his bones to be interred at Fort Canning among the graves of the kings of Singapura
You guys really did your research. I'm impressed. First time i see a travel channel that explores local sights and the heartlands. Personally not a fan of the fake tourism in Singapore as it hides the true sights and sounds of the country.
If you have time you can consider touring neighbourhood estates, their local malls, eateries, beaches, parks and recreational areas. Most of the sites you visit are historical(Little India, Chinatown, Geylang) or futuristic(CBD, Orchard). The neighbourhoods represent the present.
Guys please get out from Central Area, go more local area like punggol waterway nature park, mac Ritchie nature trail, sungei buloh wetland reserve and more, if you running out of EZ-Link, just use your credit card to tap, i hope you can explore more places in Singapore, enjoy and have a great day❤✌️
So witty you guys , thank you , I enjoyed the commentary through the whole video :) good work.
Hello hello there! Nice to see you uploaded another video of Singapore.
We’ve had so much fun here 🤩
You guys walked from Little India to Chinatown? Mad respect
In the Chinatown area, there are 4 hawker centres that you can go to, Chinatown Complex, Maxwell, Hong Lim & People's Park.
Not sure if you have more videos after this one, but it is a pity that you guys have been in SG for a few weeks but only gone round mainly the touristy places (Chinatown, Little India & Marina Bay area). There are so much more in SG that tourists can explore. 😊
Dear, dear... hey! Never hide under a tree when it rains, in case lightning strikes... the thunder in Singapore can be quite ferocious... and often crazy... 😄😃😀😘😍🥰🙃😉😊
Beautiful outdoor space looking lush after the rain.
STUNNING SPIRAL STAIR WITH ROUND OF GARDEN...VERY POPULAR....TKS U FOR SHOW AROUND...HAVE GOOD NEXT TRIP FROM 🇩🇪 🇩🇪
Welcome to my country.... small but yet so much depth ... some more tips... u r not done yet... head to the suburbs, the non touristy stuffssss ... the suburbs are charming and full of surprises ( Holland Village, Toa Payoh ) ... and you must visit .. the reservoirs... nature park like Henderson Waves.. MacRitchie Reservoir ... Pulau Ubin .. Changi Coastal walk ..
Lee Kwan Yew was the first Prime Minister of Singapore after Independence. He is not the founder of Singapore. It was Sir Stamford Raffles. But Lee Kwan Yew has the title of Father of the Nation because of his leadership that turned Singapore from a 3rd world fishing village into a 1st World Metropolis.
We actually have a mosque, a Hindu temple, a Buddhist temple and a Methodist church along a 400 metre stretch along South Bridge Road. It is our national pride.
Your vlogs are amazing...
Not sure you guys visited west sides of Singapore with Chinese and Japanese garden and lotsa of food and malls. We have little guilin and bukit batok nature park too. You guys can immerse in a very local culture and lifestyle here at west sides too. ❤
I really can't imagine you walk from little India , fort canning and to Chinatown is it within the same days 😮 ?? guys
It’s definitely feasible, albeit under the scorching sun given our climate. I’m a Singaporean female and I’m 56. On my days when I feel like out and about, I’ll take a bus to Little India, walk around it and have a masala tea. Then I walk to Arab street and explore the many quaint alleys and shops and enjoy a beer or 2 there. Next I walked to Bras Basah, Bugis Junction, Raffles Hotel and Raffles City and Funan Mall. All done within 5 hours. And I thoroughly enjoyed myself. 😊
I'm Singaporean and I do walk from Little India to Kampong Glam. 😂 Little India to Chinatown I usually just take the NEL. Lol
We didn’t find it challenging at all 👍🏻😉
That's what tourists do. I do lots of walking when I travel as outside of Singapore as well. Of cos it also has to depends if the country or street/pavement is suitable for walking. Singapore does although the weather is killer. I visit Hong Kong a number of times and I would walk and walk and walk as well...just so we can continue to eat and eat lol
Oh Khansama is one of my favourite Indian restaurant! Little India also has Bismillah Briyani that has a Michelin award. 😂
Norris Road along little india its a Kopitiam . Inside this kopitiam there is a Senior Pakistan man make a nice Chapati and kema the best in Singapore.
At tekka you can have best tea tarik at indian coffee stall.
The tea in Bak Kut Teh I think it is separate from the main dish, it used to be serve along side a pot of chinese tea to cut down the greasiness of the pork ribs. Not sure why, but someone who is more knowledgeable can explain it better. At least that is how I remember it at the old Hong Lim Market Bak Kut Teh store, there used have a heater with each table to boil water to make the tea, they got this cute little chinese tea set with small little cups and a packet of Iron Buddha tea leaves. Maybe nowadays it is not so common as they tend to use Prime Ribs compared to spare ribs which is not as oily.
Hi, you have at tekka market its a food paradise. Each of the Stall had a very nice dish.
You are so closed and yet so far, because you did not try Chendol at the Indian stall.
Next to Briani Stall is West Coast stall. Best Mutton Soup deep with plain bread. You must come back again to tekka before leaving Singapore.
Singapore best Nasi Lemak is at Adam Road Food Center.
Highly recommended Mutton Soup at Tekka West Coast stall.
You😂 miss the great deal for that ice cold beer 🍺🍺🍺 guys 😂
Haha unfortunately 🤭
its hard to watch my calories intake when delicious food is so accessible
Another wonderful beautiful that felt like 5 mins 😂 yall are so good at this haahaha

Start a petition 🤩🥰
Urgh, can’t stand listening to the Mixue theme jingle/song for more than a minute. Unfortunately my kids love to patronize them.
honestly 😂 how many days are you guys in Singapore😅😊
We spent a month in Singapore 🥰
Guys - you have been going places, seeing faces 😁😁 Using the MRT but also walking it off after meals. What better way to know the country then to do the walk on the ground? I hope SG is memorable for you and the wait has been worth it.
Wow, amazooon! 😮
🥰
We viewers are making casual Comments just to INSPIRE you both to Achieve more Achieve more that's all.
OK thanks Respected sir.
such a lovely couple and video. Thanks again.
you should visit the birdpark
Would love to 🥰
It was a shame you didn't stay longer in Chinatown where several hawker food centres can be found and much cheaper than in Maxwell Market.
Wow you have just watched a pair of jungle Fowl,if you try to catch they can fly,a rare glimpse 😮
U guys should try some durians!
👍🏻😉
Well.. I think it'll be interesting for someone to launch a RUclips investigation of the supposedly "900 windows" fable of the hill street police station. Lots of channels and websites like Roots, have cashed in on the story and ran with it. I used to work with the ministry of the information arts.. Been there quite a bit, although there were lots of windows, but 900 is quite a streatch.. Maybe someone can do a physical count and verify it.
Hi guys, very interesting video and loved it, especially it being in Singapore. Take care
Glad you enjoyed it Linda 🤩
gotta carry around an umbrella in se asia, during rainy season 😅. surprised you didn't associate singapore with food. I wouldn't care too much of anything else and just hawker center hop my entire time there 😋

Love alone is Fully eligible to create a DEEPEST IMPACT when compared to Sharp Daggers and Shooting Guns itself but here whom we select to Love requires more CELLAR INTEL always.
Bak=meat kut=bone teh=tea so literally Meat bone tea but yeah in reality pork rib soup. There is no tea at all but traditionally its always served with chinese tea.
That is a painting of Lee Kuan Yew. The founding father of Singapore.
Singapore has a balance of capitalism and socialism which makes everyone envious
why do u keep going to Maxwell at night 😢
Humpty Dumpty's paradise. Another brilliant video. Thank you. Thank you very much.
Please do not hide under the tree when it's raining. The lightning will strike the trees. LOL.
By the way😂 Lee Kuan Yew is not only the founder of Singapore , he is Singapore first Prime minister .
LKY was the first Prime Minister and sometimes called the founder of modern Singapore but the founder of Singapore back in 1819 was Stamford Raffles.
I used to wonder how he found Singapore. Weren’t there already people on the island? So hadn’t they already found it before him? Had to brush up on my English before I understood. :)
correction he was a good S'pore Prime Minister but not the founder of Singapore✌
Founder of Singapore- Sir Stamford Raffles , Founder of modern Singapore- LKY
@@MelvinSimKH 1819 was Stamford Raffles founder of "modern" Singapore, b4 he came, Singapore already exist known as Temasek ( fishing Village), later change to Singapura ( Singa- means lion and Pura- town/village by Parameswara.(dun know how it bcame Singapore ! singa- lion, pore ?) maybe westener had dificulty pronouncing the word Singapura )😁 ✌
We all can wander on Nook and corners of our world but to experience the PINK RELIEF MOODS we must visit every Ancient Temples of our country India but here nothing can overtake it anyhow.
Guys 😂 you have gone into memory lane of Singapore experience the history of the second world war at Fort Canning Hill 😂
❤
The FOOTS PRINTS of British had already Touched the DEEP ROOTS of various countries of our world but here even Portugal and Dutch and French tried more but they were able to Touch certain LAYERS alone but why.
927 windows guys
You have to be some kind of genius to get lost in Singapore. 😅
支持
🤩🥰
The Tamil Nadu state alias Tamilan kottai state of south India had already taught about that ROCK PILLARS GLORY to the whole world itself but nowadays Tamilans doesn't Realize about there REAL WORTH because of a disease called Jealousy vibes but why.
bro u cant get lost in singapore. its just a small dot
do you find singapore similar to china? Can you communicate in English quite easily and freely in Singapore?
Most Singaporeans speak English.
It is a strange question rooted in western ignorant and prejudice.
China and Singapore are distinct. Even across China, the differences are huge.
English is the working and daily language in Singapore.
Singapore is definitely different from China! 😅 Singaporeans speak English readily. Unless you interact with migrant workers from China, India, Myanmar etc who are generally in the service industry, you will have no issues speaking English here.
I’m Singaporean, and I travel to China often for sightseeing and food. Hardly anyone speaks English there, except a handful of young graduates. The young people may understand simple English and speak it only if necessary. Their mother tongue is Putonghua 普通话 mandarin . I do meet Americans who even live and work there and they have no issues with integrating into the Chinese community, at least with the use of Google translate. 😅
Everyone speaks enough english for us to communicate however using translation devices is easy too 👍🏻
❤🇨🇦
2:00 now your are hurting the feelings of Sang Nila Utama... 😂
Sir Raffles and the evil East India Company don't count.
Those people queuing for that IG-able photo shot at the staircases have to be tourists. And if they been posing for decades oblivious to the queue behind them, guess which country they come from? :-)
