Mid Autumn 2012

I did all these shots in a day; the Mid Autumn Festival this year had been a little rush for me hence I did not have the opportunity to visit the various places before the actual day.

Before dinner time, I managed to catch the iWeekly event at Parkway Parade, followed by a live performance of Chinese instruments in Compass Point.

Clarke Quay had always been a prime area for such festivals and it had became rather commercialised; hence being on the actual day, it was even more crowded than ever.

Heritage Trail - Joo Chiat

Another outing I had organised to have a look into another heritage town of Joo Chiat, which the prominent landmark of Joo Chiat Complex is a popular place for the Malay community during the festival of their fasting month.

Weather had fortunately been sunny, and I had the opportunity to bump into an Australian writer, Pavle Radonic, who decided to live in Joo Chiat for a couple of months but had fell in love with this place and made it his home for the past 1.5 years.  We had a warm conversation and will definitely be meeting again soon.

Venturing further into the town, the heart lies in Koon Seng Road where one can see many of the conserved architecture which are nearing a century old, still well-preserved while containing the beauty of the rich heritage of this place.

Definitely a must for revisit another day.

Heritage Connect@Tanjong Pagar Railway Station (former)

Lined in the carpark are more than 30 vintage cars including scooters and minibuses.  It is indeed an eye-opener for those living in the modern days to have a feel of the classic motorworks which are still a delight to many collectors today.
