1991-2000

Peranakan Place, Singapore

Peranakan Place is a row of six two-story shophouses facing Orchard Road, built around 1902. With its historic colonnaded covered walkways, Peranakan Place is an attraction for tourists and locals alike.

From the time stamp on this picture and a few others, we must have been in Singapore at the end of 1991. I'm assuming it indicates the date the film was processed.

Nicely framed by the trees. The architecture has really interesting detail such as the shutters. V

So many architectural details and tropical plants to surround the shops. I see the sign in English for the tourists.

This is how I envision Singapore from old movies. Set in with native plants, it is filled with charm.

what a contrast with the contemporary architecture so prominent in today's Singapore...the older character buildings add a special charm..

Ah, this place remains practically unchanged, the facade that is, as it is under Conservation by legislation. V
