Walk, Chat, Explore: Exotic Geylang by Night
Details
Join us as we explore exotic Geylang by night!
Its a place with a mix of old and new, in architecture, food, temples of various religions, clan associations, and other businesses.
And a very small part of it is also the site of Singapore's only official (regulated) red-light district.
But unofficially, many other things go on around there, which gives some parts of it a "wild wild west" vibe at certain times and on certain days.
We will explore the area, zig-zagging our way to find hidden sites, historical places, different architectures, hangouts, Instagrammable sights, and much more.
