11 Coldest Places In Singapore To Escape To When The Weather Is Sibei Hot Outside

Gracelyn Lim — Fri, 05 Jun 2026 01:00:23 +0000

Coldest places in Singapore

Singapore’s weather has been nothing short of ~~warm~~ hot in the recent few months. It doesn’t matter if you’ve just taken a shower or just standing still – you’ll find beads of sweat dripping down your body in a matter of minutes these days. So, if you’re looking for a place to fight off the heat, we’ve collated the coldest places in Singapore to seek refuge.

1. Movie theatres

Ever gone on a movie date and Bae told you she’s cold? Yeah, it isn’t because she’s trying to get you to cuddle up with her. She’s probably actually freezing in her seat as movie theatres in Singapore are notoriously cold.

But in this weather where you’re sweating your pits off, tell her to bring a jacket next time, so you can enjoy the cold on your own. Don’t blame us if she gives you the cold shoulder though. Hey, you’re the one who’s looking up the coldest places in Singapore.

For an extra chilly experience, we recommend watching a horror movie. You’d definitely be guaranteed chills down your spine and your hair standing on end – is the movie theatre particularly cold or is there someone sitting next to you? We’re not going to tell you.

2. Changi Airport & Paragon Malls

Air-conditioned comfort and a gondola boat ride? You’ll only find this at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.

There’s nothing quite like the relief of stepping out of the blazing sun into the icy blasts of air-conditioning of shopping malls in Singapore. And with 171 malls – and counting – dotting the island, it won’t be too hard to find one to loiter into for a solid minute of cold air.

The Forest Valley at Jewel Changi is kept at 23˚C.

A majority of shopping malls keep their air-conditioners set to a breezy 23˚C to keep the place nice and cold. We’ve found that Jewel Changi and Paragon are known to be extra cold.

Sure, there are a number of new malls in Singapore like One Holland Village that have gone the environmentally-friendly route that don’t fully air-condition the place. But even these are designed to allow wind and airflow so you’re not dripping in sweat as you shop.

3. Supermarket dairy aisle

Here’s an alternative to the coldest shopping malls that’s probably just a couple of minutes from your home – the dairy aisle at the supermarket or grocery store. It sounds oddly specific but there’s a good reason for it: dairy products must be kept between 2˚C and 4˚C. Plus, the shelves are usually open, unlike freezers that have closed doors to keep the cold in.

If that doesn’t work, then there’s at least the frozen section that’s bound to have icy treats for sale. Ice cream cones and popsicles are sure to do the trick.

4. NLB libraries

Maybe you favour TV shows on Netflix over picking up a book for entertainment these days. But it might be time to start reading again in this heat. Our NLB libraries aren’t just a great source for paperbacks, they’ve got deliciously cold air-conditioning too. If you’re planning to stay for an extended period of time, just remember to make a seat booking on the NLB website.

Pro-tip: The reference shelves might prove to be the coldest spots in the library. These books are often kept in the shade to prevent sun damage to these old books. They’re also much quieter; let’s be real, there really aren’t that many people looking up reference journals when the world’s knowledge is easily accessible through Google.

5. Cold room in flower wholesale centres

There’s a reason why flowers like roses and tulips don’t grow naturally on this side of the planet – it’s just way too hot! But there’s a reason why they’re still so readily available for flower delivery in Singapore: cold rooms at flower shops.

This is where fresh cut flowers are stored so they don’t wilt in the sun. Temperatures here are kept around the 6˚C-10˚C range and it’s not uncommon to find workers decked out in winter parkas here.

6. Gardens by the Bay in the evenings

Where else can you find non-native flora in Singapore? At the Gardens by the Bay of course, which means these greenhouses are set to cooler temperatures to allow the floral displays of cherry blossoms and orchids to maintain lustre throughout the exhibition.

Cloud Forest.

The Cloud Forest might feel cooler because of the mist coming from the indoor waterfall. But since most of the plants here are tropical, the temperature is set to 23˚C-25˚C. If you want it cooler, the Flower Dome has a lower temperature range of 23˚C-25˚C. Look out for exhibitions on delicate spring flowers like Tulipmania – that’s when temperatures drop to their lowest.

During the day, the Flower Dome can get pretty warm considering how it’s made of glass. Come in the evenings if you want to feel the chill.

7. Downtown Line especially the wee hours of the morning

Here’s an MRT design secret you probably didn’t know: the Downtown Line runs entirely underground through the city. In fact, Bencoolen MRT station is the deepest public place in Singapore – it’s 43m below street level. If you paid attention in science class, you know that this means it gets chilly down here.

Come in the wee hours of the morning if you really want your bones shivering and your teeth chattering. That first train at 5.30am when everyone else is asleep is the coldest.

8. The office

Image credit: Uchify

They don’t call the corporate world cold for nothing. Offices are always frigid no matter how warm it is outside. It’s cold enough that I’ve seen colleagues of mine bring in thick sweaters and jackets that wouldn’t look out of place at a winter destination like Japan or Korea.

As to why offices are so cold, apparently, it helps keep people productive and focused. Colder temperatures became the norm after most workers in the past would wear 3-piece suits to the office. The air-conditioning was necessary to prevent unsightly pit stains.

Also, studies suggest that men prefer working in cooler conditions, while women prefer it warmer. If you find yourself drenched in sweat after heading out for lunch, hang out in departments that have more men – you’ll cool down that much faster.

9. Snow City

This one is pretty self-explanatory. As a kid, this was the closest I got to experiencing winter during the school holidays. “Winter” and “Singapore” may not exist outside of daydreams, but it’s very real at Snow City.

The indoor snow centre is a literal winter wonderland with snowy slopes to slide down, ice sculptures to pose with, and even bumper cars on ice.

The temperatures are at a freezing 5˚C to prevent anything from melting into a puddle, so winter jackets, pants, gloves, and boots are a must. Don’t worry, they’re available for free for ticketholders. But you can also turn to winter clothes shops to pick up the necessary.

P.S. Snow City is closing on 30th September 2026, so be sure to get your winter fix locally before it all melts away. Tickets are on sale of up to 30% till the end at $19/adult and $16/child, and this includes 1 hour of snow play and 1 bumper car ride, so you’ll definitely get your money’s worth to cool down during El Nino.

10. Kallang Ice World

If you want cold with a side of activity, Kallang Ice World is the move. The rink has to stay frozen for the ice to hold, which means the air temperature in there is genuinely Arctic; you’ll feel the chill the moment you step off the warm Kallang streets and onto the rink floor.

Sessions start from $20 for adults for a 2-hour block with skates included, and on weekends, the place fills up fast, so arrive early if you want to secure a spot and spend the next 2 hours in blissful, shivering comfort.

Adults: $20

11. National Orchid Garden Sembcorp Cool House

Anyone who’s walked through the Botanic Gardens in the midday heat knows the particular kind of suffering involved. The Sembcorp Cool House, tucked inside the National Orchid Garden, is your reward for making it through. Designed to replicate a high-elevation montane forest at 1,000-2,000m above sea level, temperatures inside hold between 16°C and 23°C, which is the kind of cool that makes you stop and just stand there for a minute.

Once you’ve recovered from the heat outside, you’ll find around 1,000 orchid species and hybrids displayed across 5 biogeographical regions alongside carnivorous plants and shimmery-leafed begonias. Entry is bundled with the National Orchid Garden admission fee: $5 for local adults and $1 for students and seniors. If you’re going, time it for midday when the contrast between the scorching gardens outside and the cool air inside hits hardest.

Escape the heat at the cold places in Singapore

“If only Singapore had 4 seasons,” said every Singaporean who’s ever had to walk in the blazing sun to get lunch. It’s a wish we’ve frequently made ourselves but alas, it’s yet to come true. Nonetheless, with this list of coldest places in Singapore, at least there’s less suffering to be had under this heat.

Thankfully, almost everywhere we go is air-conditioned, even the buses we ride, so maybe we should be a little more grateful for these little luxuries we have.

The Pokémon Center At Jewel Is Reopening With A New Look & Exclusive SG-Themed Merchandise

Wei Yin — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:06:00 +0000

Pokémon Center Singapore reopening

After temporarily closing in April 2026 for a refresh, Pokémon Center Singapore at Jewel Changi Airport is finally making its much-anticipated comeback on 1st July 2026!

Fans can expect a brand new look and exclusive Singapore-themed merchandise you won’t find anywhere else. So if you’ve been counting down the days to purchasing merch and collecting Pokémon cards again, your pilgrimage plans can officially resume.

When does the store reopen & how can I visit?

The refreshed store and exclusive merch will feature Singapore icons.

Let’s get the nitty-gritty details out of the way first. The store will officially reopen on 1st July 2026, on a Wednesday. But before you apply for annual leave, take note that entry to the store will be restricted during its first 5 days of reopening, from 1st-5th July 2026.

To manage crowds, admission will be split into 2 methods: Store Visit Application and Same-day Queue Entry Tickets.

Store Visit Application

If you’d rather secure your spot and avoid camping outside Jewel at ungodly hours, you’ll want to try your luck with the advance Store Visit Application. Each successful applicant can bring 1 guest, meaning a maximum of 2 people per entry.

To apply, head to the official Store Visit Application website, enter your phone number, and select your preferred visit date between 1st and 5th July. You’ll then be asked to choose 3 preferred time slots before confirming your registration.

Applications close on 2nd June 2026, with results announced from 4th June 2026. Successful applicants can enter the store between 10am and 1pm.

Same-day Queue Entry Tickets

Didn’t get selected? You can still see whether Lady Luck is on your side by heading down to the store for general admission. Same-day queue tickets will be distributed on-site from 8.30am, while slots last, and entry will be from 1pm onwards.

What to expect at the newly refreshed store?

New look & logo

The refreshed facade also comes with an updated logo, and there’s a reason for that – Solgaleo is now the new symbol of the store.

Pokémon Center Singapore has also revealed that it’s a “Singapore-inspired store”, so keep your eyes peeled for local touches sprinkled throughout the space.

Exclusive merchandise

Image credit: Pokémon Center Singapore

To celebrate its grand reopening, there’ll be a range of Singapore-themed merchandise. The 1st drop will feature 12 exclusive items available on reopening day, including a Pikachu holding a durian, a traditional kopi cup with Pokémon motifs, and keychains decorated with Peranakan tile-inspired designs.

And that’s just the beginning. A 2nd collection is set to launch in August, featuring even more locally inspired collectibles.

Purchase limits may apply – we suggest checking Pokémon Center Singapore’s Instagram page for the latest updates.

Pokémon fans, it’s time to prepare for the reopening

With admission restrictions potentially continuing beyond the first 5 days, depending on crowd conditions, don’t expect to just stroll in on a whim. If anything, the system is designed to manage the inevitable rush of eager fans, so planning ahead isn’t just recommended but essential.

Pulau Brani Is Singapore’s Next Sentosa – Here’s What It Could Look Like

Andrea Chandra Putri — Fri, 29 May 2026 09:01:12 +0000

Pulau Brani

As you make your way across the bridge to Sentosa for a fun day out, you would have to pass by an island full of shipping containers. This is Pulau Brani, and it’ll soon be full of new attractions you can enjoy as part of the Greater Sentosa Master Plan. Here’s the lowdown on the island’s history and what you can expect in the near future.

Pulau Brani’s history

Image credit: Uncover65 – Explore Singapore via Facebook

Long before Singapore gained independence, Pulau Brani was already hard at work as an industrial island. The Straits Trading Company opened a tin smelting plant here back in 1890, producing what became known as “Straits Tin” – a name recognised worldwide for having the highest quality.

Image credit: Uncover65 – Explore Singapore via Facebook

In case you don’t speak Bahasa Melayu, Pulau Brani actually translates to “isle of the brave”, and true to its name, the island has also played a significant part in Singapore’s defences. Fort Teregah was built on the southernmost point of Pulau Brani in 1861, and Singapore’s first naval base, Brani Naval Base, was also opened here in 1971.

Image credit: The Pulau Brani Project

You may have heard of people living on Pulau Ubin, but some people also used to call Pulau Brani home. The island was once home to the Orang Laut, and until the 1960s, around 500 Malay and Chinese residents lived in stilt houses here. They were later relocated to the mainland to make way for Brani Naval Base.

Image credit: Island Nation

Currently, Pulau Brani still remains largely an industrial area, with most of the island being taken up by the Brani Port Terminal. While Brani Naval Base has since been replaced by another naval base, the site is now occupied by the Police Coast Guard headquarters.

If you’re a gamer, you might also recognise Pulau Brani as the setting for the Manifest map in Battlefield 2042. But unlike what the game predicts, the island won’t remain as a container port by 2042, thanks to the Greater Sentosa Master Plan.

What is the Greater Sentosa Master Plan?

The Greater Sentosa Master Plan is aimed at rejuvenating the southern coastline of Sentosa and Pulau Brani. It was first announced in 2019 as the Sentosa-Brani Master Plan, with the hopes of turning the 2 islands into a premier tourist destination.

What to expect at Pulau Brani in the future?

Increased connectivity

If you think about getting to Sentosa, you’d probably think of hopping on the Sentosa monorail from VivoCity. But soon, you’ll have even more ways to get to the island through Pulau Brani. There are plans to improve connectivity from the mainland to Greater Sentosa, and there’ll also be a transport hub connecting Sentosa and Pulau Brani.

Themed attractions

Image credit: Sentosa Development Corporation via LinkedIn

The 2 islands under Greater Sentosa will be split into 5 redevelopment zones – in particular, you’ll find 3 zones in Pulau Brani. The Vibrant Cluster will feature large-scale themed attractions for families, while you’ll find hotels, retail and other attractions at the Island Heart Cluster, right in the middle of the development. Meanwhile, closer to the mainland, you’ll find the Waterfront Cluster, which will feature a futuristic discovery park.

Elements of port heritage

Image credit: Sentosa Development Corporation

It may be in with the new, but that doesn’t mean we’re completely going out with the old – you’ll still see elements of Singapore’s port heritage among the new developments on Pulau Brani. In particular, port architecture, like the container cranes, is expected to be retained in the city-facing Waterfront Cluster.

Natural habitats

Image credit: BiblioAsia

The Master Plan is also keeping an eye out for the marine life surrounding the islands. As the islands get redeveloped, the natural habitats and wetland areas, such as the coral reefs between Pulau Brani and Sentosa, will be restored.

When will the Greater Sentosa Master Plan be completed?

As you would expect from a plan as ambitious as this, works on the Greater Sentosa Master Plan are expected to be completed by 2045. But don’t worry if you can’t wait that long, as some new developments and attractions will also open before then.

And if you want to get a sneak peek of what’s to come, there are exhibitions planned to showcase future plans for Greater Sentosa at VivoCity and other heartland areas, and they are scheduled for July 2026.

Expect new thrills at Pulau Brani soon

In case you were looking for something new to do at Sentosa, just wait a little longer for the redevelopments on Pulau Brani. It might seem like a long time, but rest assured that you’re in for a whole new slew of adventure on the southern coastline.

Jurong Rock Caverns Is An Oil Storage Facility 150m Below Ground That Safeguards SG’s Energy Supply Chains

Wei Yin — Fri, 29 May 2026 07:02:15 +0000

Jurong Rock Caverns

With the recent disruptions to the global energy supply chains and increasing petrol prices, we got curious about how our Little Red Dot ensures we don’t get caught off guard when things get shaky worldwide. Turns out, part of the answer lies deep below ground.

Hidden beneath Jurong Island is the Jurong Rock Caverns (JRC), a huge underground network that opened in 2014 and plays an important role in keeping Singapore running. Here are some fun facts about this lesser-known facility that most Singaporeans probably didn’t even know existed.

Singapore’s deepest underground development

Image credit: JTC

The JRC sits 150m underground, carved straight into the bedrock beneath Jurong Island. To put that into perspective, the deepest MRT station in Singapore, Bencoolen MRT, is “only” 43m underground. So these caverns go way, way deeper.

Instead of taking up precious surface land, the facility was built underground to free up 60ha of surface space, or roughly the size of 60 football fields, for other uses.

The result is caverns that can store around 9 million barrels of liquid hydrocarbons – energy-rich liquid compounds derived mainly from crude oil and natural gas. These are used in things we rely on daily, including transportation and heating, which power various industries.

Each cavern gallery is about the height of a 9-storey building

Image credit: JTC

Standing at about 20m wide and 27m tall, each cavern gallery is roughly the height of a 9-storey building. Now picture that, but completely underground, and it’s honestly quite mind-blowing.

In total, there are 5 cavern galleries, and each one can hold a volume of around 160,000m³, or roughly 1 million barrels.

Put all these figures together, and it’s clear why the JRC is considered one of Southeast Asia’s most impressive underground infrastructure feats.

Took 8 years & cost $950 million to build

Image credit: Vopak

And of course, with something this massive in scale and capability, it didn’t come together overnight. The JRC took about 6 years of planning and another 8 years of construction to complete.

All that engineering effort also came with a hefty price tag: $950 million was invested to bring it to life.

A facility that ensures products stay uncontaminated

Image credit: JTC

Most people probably imagine oil just sitting in huge tanks above ground, but that actually comes with its own set of challenges, especially when it concerns space and product quality.

Beyond just freeing up valuable land above ground, the facility is also designed to keep crude oil and compatible products stored separately, reducing the risk of contamination. And this matters more than it sounds. By ensuring each product stays properly isolated, JRC helps maintain quality all the way through to the end users.

Is Jurong Rock Caverns open to the public?

View this post on Instagram

Nope, JRC isn’t open to the public.

As cool as it looks, it’s a highly specialised industrial facility, so public access isn’t allowed for safety and operational reasons. The closest you’ll get is through photos, documentaries, or the occasional feature like this, which is probably the next best thing to actually stepping inside.

Your peek into Singapore’s deepest underground facility

It’s quite reassuring to know that beneath Jurong Island sits something as massive and carefully engineered as the JRC, quietly doing its job while most of us go about our daily lives above ground. It’s also a good reminder of how Singapore tends to think ahead, planning for long-term resilience even in ways we don’t always see or think about.

Jurong Fishery Port: A Seafood Wholesale Market That Comes To Life While Most Of Singapore Sleeps

Ong Rui En — Fri, 29 May 2026 01:35:13 +0000

Jurong Fishery Port Tour

If you want to find the freshest, lowest-priced seafood in Singapore, there’s no better place to look than the source itself. Jurong Fishery Port is mainly known for its B2B operations, which is why many people don’t realise it’s open to the public too.

Even if you’ve heard of it before, navigating the busy port can get confusing and overwhelming for first-timers. That’s where the Jurong Fishery Port Tour by Hidden Heritage Tours comes in – it takes you on a guided exploration of its history and inner workings, and shows you exactly how to purchase seafood like a pro.

What is Jurong Fishery Port?

Jurong Fishery Port is the largest wholesale port market and the only fishery port in Singapore after the closure of Senoko Fishery Port. Like how Pasir Panjang Wholesale Centre is Singapore’s wholesale hub for fruits and vegetables, Jurong Fishery Port is the hub for the handling, processing, and distribution of seafood locally.

Almost all freshly caught and imported seafood that comes to Singapore is handled by the port market for distribution to wet markets, supermarkets, and restaurants, so you can expect the freshest seafood at affordable, wholesale prices here.

What is the best time to visit Jurong Fishery Port?

The port operates 24 hours a day, all year round, closing only on Monday mornings between 2am and 6am.

It usually gets the busiest on Fridays and Saturdays, especially during the wee hours between 2am and 5am, when fresh catches are offloaded, auctioned, and distributed to reach neighbourhood wet markets, hawker centres, and supermarkets before they open for the day.

If you’re coming here on your own to buy seafood, the best time to visit would be between 1am and 2am, when you’ll see all the seafood before they get snatched off the shelf, or buckets in this case, in bulk by retailers.

But if you’re not picky about quality and are okay with the leftovers, coming early in the morning after the port’s peak hours would be great too, because that’s when the fish sellers start throwing out discounts to clear their stock.

What to bring & prepare before visiting Jurong Fishery Port?

Happen to have Phua Chu Kang-style rubber boots lying around? Those are the perfect footwear choice when visiting the port.

The shoes we wore on the tour.

Otherwise, just put on a pair of non-slip, covered shoes when you leave your house. Ideally, go for waterproof ones that you don’t mind getting dirty, because the floor at the market is often slippery and wet. According to the dress code notice for port users, open footwear like slippers, sandals, and Crocs is not allowed for safety purposes.

Before you enter the area, you’ll need to register online via SFA’s Visitor Management System or through the kiosks at the security guardhouse. Make sure to have your identification, like your NRIC, work permit, passport, or Singpass app, ready for scanning at the entrance and exit.

If you’re planning to purchase seafood, a cooler bag will come in handy. Do bring along some cash as well, because many of the vendors collect payment the traditional way.

Find out more on the SFA website.

Jurong Fishery Port Tour by Hidden Heritage Tours

For an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at Jurong Fishery Port, consider signing up for the Jurong Fishery Port Tour by Hidden Heritage Tours.

Tickets go for $60/adult and $55/child, and the activity is SG Culture Pass eligible if you still have $100 worth of credits to burn.

The tour starts at 10.45pm and wraps up by 12.45am. Although that might sound late for those who are usually already in bed by then, this is when the market really wakes up – as mentioned, most of the action happens between 2am and 5am, so you’ll be there just in time to catch it.

Tours only run about twice a month, and each session is capped at 35 people, so you’ll want to book early as slots are limited.

What to expect on the tour

Meet your tour guides

The meeting point for the tour is at the canteen inside the port – you’ll need to pass through the security gates first before making your way there. We got a little lost, but here’s the key detail: it’s located to the right of the security gates, on the 1st floor of a building that might initially look like a dormitory or housing block.

At the canteen, we met Stanley, one of the founders of Hidden Heritage, as well as the tour guides-cum-fish experts, Ryan and Yi Xuan – who some of you might recognise from @facepalmfishing on YouTube.

We were also handed audio guides to wear, which made it easier to follow along and hear the tour guides clearly – especially helpful given the size of the group and how busy the area can get.

During the tour, you’ll learn the history of Jurong Fishery Port – like its “fishy” beginnings as a market more than a century ago, which was reportedly burnt down in a fire that some speculated was set to force fish vendors out.

One thing we appreciated about the tour guides was how they prioritised the group’s safety. Since the port is filled with forklifts and heavy vehicles zooming around, one of the guides would often go ahead first to scout out safe spots for us to stand before leading the group over.

Peek into the fish merchants’ office units

The 1st stop on the tour was a look at where fish merchants operate from day to day. What initially looked like a housing block turned out to be the complex housing the fish merchants’ office units, where they handle admin work and take breaks between the early-morning action at the port.

That impression came from how homely the place looked, with fish merchants personalising their units like it was their 2nd home.

Peering in, most of the furniture looked like it belonged in a typical HDB living room.

Keep an eye out for items reminding you that you’re at a fishery port, like rubber boots at the doors and stacks of baskets to store fish, numbered so that fish merchants can identify their own.

Just remember to keep your volume down in this area, as some fish merchants might be napping inside.

You can also climb up 5 flights of stairs at the office building to get a nice lookout view of the whole port.

The Singapore Fish Merchants General Association is also located at the office building. It was set up to settle any internal conflicts between fish merchants, but is now used by the merchants to drink tea and play Chinese chess.

Another thing we noticed while touring the office building was that the car park was mostly filled with vehicles bearing Malaysian plates. The tour guides explained that many of the workers at the port are Malaysians, as selling fish is a dying trade in Singapore.

Check out elements that are a blast from the past

Much of the port looks like it has been preserved in time, with some very old-looking signs and facades. We even stopped by these vintage letterboxes that are still actively used by fish merchants for their mail and official documents. Now, it’s rare to come across letterboxes with this old design from the 70s as they have since been phased out.

If you’re feeling nostalgic, you can even poke at the metal flaps to hear that familiar clink – a repetitive sound many will remember from the days when flyer distributors would slot in mail at record speed.

Then we came across the storefront of Toko Rasek, which also looked like something out of the 20th century. It’s a shop that sells commercial supplies like styrofoam boxes to the fish merchants at the port.

Listen to true crime stories

The tour guides also shared some true crime stories, like a double murder that happened right at the office of Jurong Fishery Port. Hearing the story while standing at the actual site definitely sent chills down our spines, especially knowing that one of the perpetrators is still believed to be at large.

We won’t spoil too much here, but let’s just say you’ll want to hear this one in person on the tour itself.

Visit the shrine that fish merchants pray at

Another tour stop was the shrine that was brought over from Senoko Fishery Port after it closed down. Here, Chinese fishermen pray to Mazu, the sea goddess, for protection before their fishing voyages. Business owners, on the other hand, pray to the Earth God, AKA Tu Di Gong, for business success.

Stop by the ICA gate

No pictures are allowed here, so we didn’t manage to get a shot of the area. Our guides shared that the yellow ICA gate was constructed to enforce stricter border controls after the 9/11 attacks in the US. This gate leads out to a 400m-long wharf for docking, where the vessel crew can unload their catch.

You’ll be stunned by the sheer scale of operations here – each container can hold up to 120kg of seafood, and a mind-boggling amount of cargo containers passes through here daily.

Beyond the sea, much of the port’s seafood arrives via air or land. This includes seafood that has endured a 15-hour truck journey from neighbouring Southeast Asian countries, while premium choices like salmon and cod are flown in.

See an ice-crusher stall owner in action

Ice is a big part of the seafood business, helping to keep the produce fresh. At the port, you’ll see seafood buried in ice and packed into the mouths and stomachs of fish to maintain an even temperature from the inside out.

So it wasn’t surprising that the chilliest place in the port turned out to be the ice-crusher stall, where waves of cold air escape from towering blocks of ice – so huge that they were barely melting in Singapore’s heat and humidity.

You’ll see giant ice shaver machines used to grind the blocks down, alongside ice picks for hooking and dragging the heavy slabs around. The uncle running the stall was very kind to grind a new chunk of ice just for us to have a closer look.

Try bargaining at the wholesale fish market

The crux of the tour was the wholesale fish market where fish merchants sell seafood to retailers, wet market fishmongers, and caterers.

It felt like our day was ending, but for the fish merchants at the market, the day had just started. Over here, you’ll mostly see people weighing seafood, noting the stock, and sorting them into baskets based on species and size.

One of the highlights of the tour for us was walking the galleyway, or the bridge at the roof, used by SFA to have a birds-eye view of the whole market, ensuring that there is no “fishy” business going on. From above, we enjoyed unobstructed views of the market to people-watch and fish-spot.

The tour guides also pointed out and explained the roles of different people at the market. You’ll spot accountants perched on elevated wooden desks recording inventory and sales for each stall.

Interestingly, some fish merchants have even embraced the digital age, hiring people to do live-streaming sales right at their booths.

You might also catch migrant workers having heated bargaining moments with fish sellers, as well as other walk-in customers looking for a steal.

Seafood here is generally 10% to 15% cheaper than at your local market, though you should note that most busy fish merchants here won’t bother cleaning or gutting the fish for you.

With a laser pointer, the tour guides singled out different types of fish and explained how to differentiate those that look similar, so we don’t get scammed at wet markets.

Don’t be shocked that the fish merchants lay their seafood on the ground. Although it may seem unsanitary, your seafood still has to undergo cleaning and descaling before it ends up on your plate – after all, the fish come from the sea, which we can’t say is any cleaner than the floor.

We encountered everything from stingrays to cuttlefish, and even saw a big leopard ray with its head removed – this is a giant stingray you might find in aquariums.

Fishing enthusiasts might also find themselves stunned by the size of some of the fish here. We spotted a huge mackerel and heard that it’s really hard to catch one of such epic proportions in the wild.

The tour guides made the tour even more interesting by dishing out informative fish facts, such as which species tend to have higher mercury levels (not ideal for kids or pregnant women) and how different fishing methods affect quality. For example, trawling, which involves dragging a large net through the water behind boats, often leaves visible marks on the fish.

They also broke down the taste profiles, price ranges, and gave cooking tips for different types of fish, from steaming and grilling over an open fire to serving it up as fresh sashimi.

Later, our group headed down into the middle of the bustling market. Remember to watch your step as the ground can get slippery with puddles of water, and you might get a few splashes of fishy water as vendors wash their buckets and toss their seafood around.

From here, we could even feel the cool air brushing against our legs from all the ice, which made us wonder how the sellers could handle it so casually – sticking their hands in buckets of ice water and squatting there handling ice-cold seafood for so long.

With 130 market lots, we wouldn’t know where to start if we were to buy seafood alone. That’s why it helps having the tour guides around – they’ll recommend stalls that they usually buy from and those with discounts, so you can get the best prices. They’ll also point out vendors who can help with cleaning and cutting the fish, which makes the whole buying process a lot more convenient.

Fuel up at the canteen

The tour ends back at the canteen, where you’ll find stalls like a caifan stall with its trays still full of ingredients – a rare sight at midnight compared to most other places around Singapore. These stalls usually cater to the fish merchants and their staff who work throughout the night.

Here’s a hack we found out from the tour: you can buy fish from the market and pass it to the chef in the canteen to cook for a fee.

We had a pleasant surprise when the tour guides presented the group with some calamari from the port, freshly fried in the canteen.

Free & easy time

Do remember to return the audio guides before you leave. Once the guided portion wraps up, you’ll have a free and easy time to explore the area and make your seafood purchases.

One thing we were a little worried about was getting stranded at the port in the middle of the night, especially since it’s quite an ulu location and late at night. Fortunately, we managed to secure our private hire cars quite fairly quickly at 1am on a Saturday, but it’s worth noting that this may not always be the case.

Explore Jurong Fishery Port

The tour opened our eyes to a completely new side of Singapore, and we would definitely recommend that you check it out too, if you like exploring our country’s hidden heritage or are simply there for the fish. The next available tour date is on 19th June 2026.

One final tip: be prepared for your clothes, bags, and shoes to smell fishy by the end of the night – it’s all part of the authentic experience, and who knows, you might even find yourself becoming a bit of a cat magnet afterwards.

Everything We Know So Far About The Upcoming Seletar & Tengah MRT Lines

Chandelle Cheong — Tue, 26 May 2026 06:55:58 +0000

Upcoming Seletar & Tengah MRT Lines

If you’re tired of the seemingly endless train disruptions in 2026 that are derailing your plans – from the ongoing closure of the Sengkang West LRT Inner loop to the TEL and DTL train service disruptions – here is some good news to balance things out. There’ll be 2 new upcoming MRT lines in Singapore, the Seletar Line and Tengah Line, to look forward to.

What are the Seletar & Tengah Lines?

Image credit: Ministry of Transport

The Seletar and Tengah Lines are part of the Ministry of Transport’s goal of ensuring that most households are within a 10-minute walk of a train station. These train services aim to serve those living in new and growing developments in the north and northeast regions, like Tengah, who may not yet have direct access to the rail network.

Intended to relieve the increasing travel demand along the northeast corridor, the Seletar and Tengah Lines were first mentioned as a proposed new line in the Land Transport Master Plan (LTMP) 2040 in 2019.

They were then announced as 2 separate lines by Transport Minister Chee Hong Tat as part of the Ministry of Transport’s spending plans for Budget 2025.

Which neighbourhoods will the Seletar & Tengah Lines serve?

Image adapted from: LTA via Facebook

Although the exact transport network is not known yet, the Seletar Line is expected to serve neighbourhoods such as Woodlands, Sembawang, Sengkang West, Serangoon North, Whampoa, Kallang, and the Greater Southern Waterfront.

On the other hand, the Tengah Line is expected to pass through Tengah, Bukit Batok, Queensway, and Bukit Merah in order to supplement the current transport networks in the west and northwest regions.

There are also plans for the 2 lines to meet at the Greater Southern Waterfront so that commuters can enjoy better efficiency and more seamless connectivity when travelling.

When will the Seletar & Tengah Lines be up?

Engineering studies for the Seletar Line and Tengah Line are set to commence in 2026, with completion planned in phases in the 2040s, pending feasibility studies by the Land Transport Authority (LTA). The initial focus will also be on studying a corridor to serve the Sengkang West and Serangoon North areas, which may include future connections to the Cross Island Line and Circle Line.

The upcoming Seletar & Tengah MRT Lines will provide better connectivity

Although the proposed completion date may seem a long way ahead, the Seletar and Tengah Lines are expected to serve over 400,000 households once they’re up and running. So, for those living or wanting to live in the northern region of Singapore, you can look forward to time savings of up to 40 minutes when commuting to the city centre.

Goodwood Park Hotel, A National Monument, Was The First Hotel In Singapore To Offer A Swimming Pool

Wei Yin — Mon, 25 May 2026 06:40:41 +0000

Goodwood Park Hotel

New hotels in Singapore seem to be opening every few months, but there’s still something charming about checking into a place with real history behind it. Goodwood Park Hotel, the only heritage hotel in the Orchard Road area, is one of those spots.

If you’ve ever walked past its distinctive tower and wondered about the story behind this grand building that has seemingly stood its ground while the rest of Orchard transformed around it, you’re not alone. Here’s a quick look at the hotel’s long-standing history and why it’s still such an icon today.

First built in 1900 as a social club for German expats in Singapore

Image credit: Goodwood Park Hotel

Its story first began in 1900 – a whopping 126 years ago – as the Teutonia Club, an enclave for Singapore’s expatriate German community. Back then, Orchard Road wasn’t the shopping haven we know today, and entertainment options were few and far between.

To recreate a sense of familiarity while living overseas, 7 German expats came together to found the club as a space to socialise and build community.

Its architecture reflected those European roots too. Inspired by the grand castles along the Rhine, the building features regal details, with the iconic tower block, which still stands today, becoming its most recognisable feature.

Transformed into a hotel by 1929

Image credit: Goodwood Park Hotel

The building entered a new chapter in 1918, when it was acquired by 3 Jewish brothers from the Manasseh family, who renamed it Goodwood Hall after England’s famed Goodwood Racecourse. It even saw some star power in its heyday – legendary Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova performed there in 1922.

By 1929, it was transformed into the Goodwood Park Hotel, catering largely to businessmen from Malaya. Over the years, it also welcomed a fair share of notable guests, including the Duke of Windsor, who visited when he was the Prince of Wales of England.

1st hotel in Singapore to feature a swimming pool

After World War II ended, the building briefly served as a British War Crimes Court before eventually being returned in 1947 to Mr Vivian Bath, a descendant of the Manasseh family.

It was during this post-war revival that the hotel made local history once again, becoming the 1st hotel in Singapore to feature a swimming pool within its grounds!

The hotel changed hands & went under new management

Image credit: Wikimedia Commons

In 1963, Goodwood Park Hotel was acquired by the Malayan Banking Group. Just a few years later, in 1968, it changed hands again and came under the ownership of the late Tan Sri Khoo Teck Puat, a former Managing Director of the bank.

The legacy continues under his daughter, Mrs Mavis Oei, the hotel’s current Chairman, who has overseen massive upgrades while preserving its historic charm.

Fun fact: If you head to the entrance of the Tower Block, you’ll spot a bronze bust of Khoo Teck Puat himself.

Gazetted as a national monument in 1989

Image credit: Goodwood Park Hotel via Facebook

Fast forward to March 1989, and Goodwood Park Hotel’s iconic tower was officially gazetted as a national monument, cementing its place in Singapore’s architectural and cultural heritage.

As you walk around the hotel, keep an eye out for the details that hint at its century-long history.

Newly refurbished Mayfair Wing rooms

Naturally, with a hotel that’s been around for over a century, the interiors need a refresh every now and then. The latest update comes in the form of the newly refurbished Mayfair Wing rooms, which now feature a more modern aesthetic.

There are 2 room types under the Mayfair Wing to choose from: the Deluxe Mayfair Room and the Deluxe Poolside Room.

We had the opportunity to stay in the latter, which is located on the ground floor and comes with direct access to the Mayfair Pool – perfect for couples who enjoy a quick dip.

The Deluxe Mayfair Room, on the other hand, features a private balcony overlooking either the garden or pool. It can also accommodate an extra bed, making it a more family-friendly option if you’re planning a stay with the kids in tow.

Image credit: Goodwood Park Hotel

We noticed the earthy tones the moment we stepped into the room, paired with wood finishes and vinyl flooring that made the space feel warm and homely instead of overly hotel-like. But the hotel hasn’t completely ditched its old-school charm. Framed black-and-white photographs line the walls, featuring local scenes by French artist Gilles Massot. It’s a subtle touch, but one that adds character to the otherwise modernised space.

You’ll also be happy to know that each room comes with a bathtub – great for soaking away any knots after a long day out.

Just take note that the TV doesn’t come equipped with Netflix, but there’s still a decent selection of international channels. If you’re planning a cosy night in with your shows, it’s probably worth bringing along your laptop or tablet.

But our favourite part of the stay had to be the direct access to the Balinese-inspired Mayfair Pool. It almost felt like we’d been whisked away to a resort in Bali, except this time, the pool was just steps away.

A heritage hotel in the heart of Orchard Road

To celebrate the revamp of the Mayfair Wing rooms, the hotel has also rolled out curated stay packages.

There’s the A Timeless Retreat at Goodwood package, where you’ll get to stay in a Deluxe Premier Room. There’ll be additional perks too, like complimentary English Afternoon Tea and breakfast, late check-out until 3pm, and spa privileges. The package is valid for stays from now till 30th November 2026, with rates starting from $348/night.

And with the June holidays just around the corner, it’s also an excuse to start planning a family staycation with the Little Explorer Getaway package. You’ll stay in a Poolside Suite, complete with an in-room teepee set-up that the little ones will love, and complimentary perks to keep the whole family entertained. The package can be booked from now till 10th August 2026, and rates start from $568/night.

At a time when staycations often mean chasing the newest opening in town, Goodwood Park Hotel is a reminder that sometimes, the most memorable stays come with a bit of history behind them.

18 Things You Didn’t Know You Could Spend Your CDC Vouchers On Like Cat Cafes & Gaming Consoles

Cherisse Goldwich — Mon, 25 May 2026 06:00:47 +0000

Where to use CDC Vouchers 2026

If there’s anything Singaporeans can agree on, it’s that free things must take. After all, the only thing better than a good deal is not having to pay a thing at all. In case you’ve not heard, we’re getting a new set of CDC Vouchers ahead of time in June 2026, and each household will be able to claim a total of $500 worth of vouchers.

If you don’t already know, the use of the CDC Vouchers is split 50-50 between hawkers, heartland merchants, and supermarkets. But that doesn’t mean you’re relegated to utilising them just at hawkers and participating supermarkets. Here’s where to use your CDC Vouchers, including things to do, eat, and buy that you might not have known about.

What are CDC vouchers?

In recent news, the government has brought forward the latest tranche: $500 worth of vouchers will now be released in June 2026 instead of January 2027, in response to the rising cost of living due to the conflict in the Middle East. The CDC Vouchers released in June 2026 will be valid until 31 December 2027.

Note that unlike SG60 Vouchers, CDC Vouchers are allocated based on your household’s address, rather than individually. So, each household will receive 1 set of CDC vouchers worth $500 in total in June 2026.

But before you run with the idea that you can use the $500 to get yourself a fresh pair of kicks or some bubble tea, hold up! You can’t use the CDC vouchers just anywhere. After all, this initiative is not just meant to help households, but also to support heartland merchants and hawkers.

How to claim & redeem your vouchers

In case you are unfamiliar, redeeming your vouchers is actually quite a simple affair. For starters, all you have to do is visit the CDC vouchers redemption website on mobile or desktop, log in with your Singpass, and claim your vouchers. Only 1 member of your household will have to do this.

After the first person from a household claims the vouchers, they’ll receive a unique link sent to them via SMS. Afterwards, the rest of the household can start using them by accessing the page on mobile via this link.

Image credit: Community Development Centre

To use the vouchers at a participating merchant, simply select how much you want to redeem in that particular transaction. The vouchers come in denominations of $2, $5, and $10.

After which, a QR code will be generated, and all you have to do is to show this QR code to the merchant, who will scan it and offset the corresponding amount from your purchase. All in all, pretty easy and no-frills!

Where can you use your vouchers?

In total, the $500 is split into 2 categories: $250 for supermarkets and $250 for local heartland merchants like hawker stalls. Here are some places where you can use your CDC vouchers:

Supermarkets

As mentioned, you’ll be able to use up to $250 worth of supermarket CDC vouchers to fund your grocery runs. Plus, you’re not limited to just shopping at major supermarkets either. Apart from well-known chains around Singapore like FairPrice, Prime Supermarket, Sheng Siong, Cold Storage, HAO Mart, and U Stars, you can also use your vouchers at smaller supermarkets found in your neighbourhood.

To be sure that the supermarket you are visiting accepts CDC vouchers, check that it displays the following yellow decal:

Take note that this $250 amount won’t be transferable with the other $250 meant for local merchants, and vice versa.

Visit the CDC website to check out a full list of participating supermarkets.

Eateries

CDC voucher-eligible hawker stalls make up a majority of participating merchants, and you can use them to either offset the cost of your food or to pay it off directly. Similar to supermarkets, participating stalls would have to display the following teal decal, so do check beforehand:

Image credit: Community Development Council

You’ll also find that quite a number of other eateries like restaurants and cafes are also on the CDC website’s list of participating hawkers and heartland merchants, so here are a couple for you to check out.

1. Cafe Wabi Sabi

Japanese cafe with rice bowls & sandos

2 things Singaporeans can never have enough of: Japan and cafe hopping. Which is why Cafe Wabi Sabi is the best place to use your CDC voucher on, as it hits all the marks with their Japanese-themed menu. They’re known for their sandos that are made with housemade shokupan.

Image credit: Eatbook

The fluffy milk bread is what holds classic fillings like tamagoyaki ($10.90), which also has egg salad and mixed greens; and beef steak ($16.90) that comes topped with caramelised onions. The sandwiches are stuffed to the brim, but if you want to fill up further, you can add on fries for $3.50.

If you must have rice, there are also various donburi bowls that are served with miso soup. Popular ones include sukiyaki don ($15.90), which has pork belly and an onsen egg; and salmon mentai don ($22.90) with sashimi salmon and mentaiko sauce.

Cafe Wabi Sabi review: “The bread was lightly toasted and yummy. The torched cheese gave a light tint of smokey flavour. The white coffee was delightful and well-presented. The staff casually checks if you’re done with your mains to serve desserts.Great ambience to get some work done, and there are power points too.” – jiyong lim via Google maps

2. Cafe Fufu

Wood-fired pizzas from $15

Image credit: Eatbook

Wood-fired pizza sounds like something you’d get at a fancy Italian restaurant, but they’re readily available at Cafe Fufu, a hole-in-the-wall eatery under an HDB block in Redhill. These pizzas are made from sourdough, which adds a tangy kick to the crust. What you get is crunch on the outside, and a tender chew on the inside, making it one of the best places where pizza-lovers can use their CDC voucher at.

Pizza Salami.
Image credit: Eatbook

The signature is the Pizza Fufu (from $20), which uses a coriander pesto base that is topped with prawns, dried tomatoes, and chilli flakes. If you want something more conventional, there’s the Pizza Salami (from $18), which sees salami slices on a tomato base. The whole pie is drizzled in a savoury and fragrant oregano olive oil.

Cafe Fufu review: “We ordered the salmon pasta and the pizza salami and we both enjoyed both thoroughly. The pasta was not overcooked, and it wasn’t overly creamy. As for the pizza salami, we felt the ingredients were fresh and for a woodfire pizza, the dough was not overcooked & perfectly chewy.” – Michelle Chiu via Google Maps

3. Bailey and Whiskey

We all know that the CDC vouchers can be used by humans – I mean, duh. What many people don’t know is that the vouchers can also be used to pamper man’s best friend; located in the heart of Yishun, Fur Friends’ Pet Grooming & Salon offers grooming services for dogs, cats, and even rabbits.

Though they are able to work with all fur-styles, they specialise in teddy cuts, a special technique in which the fur is cut in a rounded manner to create an end look similar to a bear.

16. Beng Watch Service and Repair

Run by an elderly couple

Buried within a sea of much newer establishments in Bendemeer Market is Beng Watch Service and Repair, an old-school watch and clock repair shop. With a quirky, retro interior, stepping into the shop feels like going back in time.

It’s run by a sweet elderly couple, and there are no prices here – in true retro fashion, the services are charged on a case-by-case basis. Still, this doesn’t mean they overcharge customers; in fact, several online reviews state that the couple have, on many occasions, insisted no payment be made at all.

Beng Watch Service and Repair review: “If you ever need to repair or service your watch, this is the place to go! The uncle here is highly experienced with many years of expertise, and is super friendly, takes great care of your watch, and even shares tips on how to maintain it.” – Danielle Berlandier via Google Maps

17. Brow Art Asia

Popular threading shop in Clementi

They say that the brows are the windows to the face – whoever “they” may be, it’s undeniable that a tidy set of eyebrows can have a dramatic effect on one’s appearance. If your caterpillars are looking sparse, eyebrow embroidery creates the illusion of fuller brows without the need for extensive drawing, spooling, and shaping.

You can get that at Brow Art Asia. Hidden in Clementi, the shop is especially popular among residents in need of an eyebrow grooming. They’re known for their detailed work and minimal pain during the tattooing process. If your brows are gucci, they also offer eyelash extensions and eyeliner embroidery to hasten your makeup process in the morning.

While the chain has other outlets around the island, do note that only the Clementi outlet accepts CDC vouchers.

Brow Art Asia review: “They have amazing lash therapists – gentle, meticulous, and always deliver beautiful, natural-looking lashes. I get so many compliments after every session.” – Shirley Lim via Google Maps

Carnivores and gym bros, you’ll be glad to know that you can use your CDC Vouchers to fulfill all your protein needs at MEATMEN. The local butchery has 3 outlets, in Empress Road, Thomson, and Holland Village, and all 3 accept CDC Vouchers as a form of payment.

They’ve got all kinds and cuts of meat to choose from, from good ol’ beef and poultry to venison and fish. When the occasion calls for it, order their Japan A5 Wagyu Ribeye (from $102), or stock up on trays of USA Kurobuta Pork Loin (from $12) to cook up during your hot pot feasts.

Full list of MEATMEN outlets.

MEATMEN review: “My favourite butcher for a decent selection of meats without being too exotic, has both everyday cuts and some prime options too! They also make their own seasoning which has been a great match for our BBQs we have been doing.” – Garett Lee via Google Maps

Where to spend your CDC vouchers

By now, you’re probably familiar with this bi-yearly routine of redeeming CDC vouchers, and with each new tranche, there are new stores that allow for CDC vouchers to be redeemed. From pet grooming to eyebrow threading, you can not only spend your vouchers on yourself, but your pets too. Heck, you can even spend them grooming the hair pets above your eyes.

The Clarity Club private cinema in Bukit Merah

In today’s day and age of instant gratification, who doesn’t own a subscription to a streaming platform or 2? From Disney+ and Netflix to Amazon Prime and HBO Max, we’ve all dabbled in a late-night binge once in a while, but surely we can do better than squinting at our tiny smartphone screens as we’re tucked in bed.

Enter The Clarity Club. Located along Jalan Bukit Merah, it’s a private cinema facility where users can host not only elevated watch parties, but also karaoke sessions and even gaming marathons. Here’s all you need to know before you ring them up to make a booking.

How to get to The Clarity Club?

The Clarity Club is located on the 4th floor of Apex @ Henderson, an industrial development situated along Jalan Bukit Merah. The building is about a 15-minute walk from the Redhill MRT station on the East-West Line. Alternatively, you can take bus no. 132 from the MRT station and alight at the Blk 116 bus stop (stop ID: 10349); Apex @ Henderson will then be a 4-minute walk away.

If you’re driving, you’ll be able to find plenty of parking within Apex @ Henderson, and the parking rates are as follows:

Mon-Sat:

7am-6pm: $0.80/30 mins
6pm-7am: $2.50/entry

Sun & PH: $2.50/entry

What to expect at The Clarity Club?

The Clarity Club is a private entertainment club that users can rent out for immersive audiovisual experiences. In simpler terms, it’s a pad that’s decked out specifically to host the most atas of watch parties.

Right now, they’re renting out their spaces to all, but they’ll be rolling out memberships in the near future, which will be extended to guests who book their Grand Theatre during this inaugural phase. As of writing, there’s no word on how much these memberships will cost, or how exclusive they will be with handing out invites.

Speaking of which, check out their Grand Theatre. Available for rent for $300/hour, every element of the movie viewing experience has been taken into consideration and optimised for maximum immersion.

This private cinema sports a huge 200-inch, 4K projection screen, as well as a Full Dolby Atmos surround sound system. The Grand Theatre comfortably accommodates up to 14 guests with its plush, tiered seating – you don’t have to crane your head at weird angles to catch the on-screen action.

Do note that you’ll have to come with your own streaming accounts in order to project your movies via their system, so be sure to jio friends who have subscriptions to your desired platforms.

But if you’re not in the mood to catch up on episodes of your favourite series, the Grand Theatre is also capable of hosting quite the shindig with its karaoke system that’s loaded with the latest hits. For gamers, you can also request for PS5 and Xbox consoles to host gaming sessions of your own.

With the World Cup season just around the corner, consider a booking with The Clarity Club so you can cheer to your heart’s content without waking up the neighbours.

In fact, they’ve got a promotion that’s available on the opening match, semi-finals, third-place playoffs, and finals of the tournament, where you can enjoy a 3-hour booking of the Grand Theatre for $1,000. Make your bookings before 31st May 2026, and they’ll even throw in a free-flow snacks and drinks package worth $200.

Yishun 10 Was SG’s 1st Multiplex Cinema Known For Its Postmodern, Sci-Fi-Inspired Design

Andrea Chandra Putri — Tue, 19 May 2026 06:53:36 +0000

Yishun 10

Head down to Yishun, and you definitely won’t miss Northpoint City, the massive mall connected to the MRT station. But if you haven’t noticed, there isn’t a cinema located within the mall, because Golden Village Yishun is actually right next door at Yishun 10.

This old-school building stands out against the modern facade of Northpoint City and holds an important place in Singapore’s cinematic scene. With recent news that it’s set to be redeveloped into a residential and commercial building, here’s a look back at the history of this iconic spot.

Singapore’s 1st multiplex cinema

You might be used to going to the cinema and walking past rows of screening halls before finding yours, but 30-odd years ago, this wasn’t the norm at all. Back when most cinemas in Singapore only had a single screen, Yishun 10 changed the game as the country’s very 1st multiplex cinema. And as its name suggests, it housed a whopping 10 screening halls under 1 roof.

Sci-fi-inspired facade & interior

When Yishun 10 first opened on 27th May 1992, it looked like something straight out of a sci-fi film. While it was designed to look like a rocket ship from space, one look at the building might remind you of Optimus Prime if he transformed into a building instead of a truck, or as this Reddit comment describes it:

In true 90s fashion, the place was covered in neon lighting, so it really felt like you’d stepped into a spaceship.

The neon aesthetic wasn’t just restricted to the interior. If you ever walked past the building back in the day – or rather, back in the night – you’d have seen it glowing, looking like it belonged in TRON: Ares.

But Yishun 10 wasn’t just a spot for cinemagoers – the building also housed eateries on the ground floor, such as familiar favourites like Burger King and Long John Silver’s. In later years, it would also be home to eateries that are no longer around in Singapore, such as Wendy’s and BurgerUP.

This brand new concept proved popular among Singaporeans – by the end of 1993, the multiplex had seen more than 3 million visitors.

Major renovation in 2010

After 18 years in operation, the multiplex shuttered its doors temporarily in 2010 to undergo major renovations. Right before work started, they hosted a GV Yishun Renovation Party on 11th August 2010 to commemorate this milestone.

The party featured a screening of Phua Chu Kang The Movie, and the main characters, Phua Chu Kang and Rosie, even showed up to grace the event.

The event also featured a demolition hall, where visitors could take whatever they wanted from the multiplex, from movie posters and cutouts of the original carpets to even the cinema seats.

After 3 months of renovations, the cinema reopened its doors on 4th November 2010, and officially rebranded to GV Yishun. The building also got a fresh coat of silver that you can still see today, saying goodbye to its iconic postmodern facade. That said, the new look still resembles a modern, sleeker spaceship.

The interior also went through major changes, reflecting the familiar style that you’d recognise from other Golden Village cinemas islandwide.

Also, it might not be obvious to the average audience member, but the upgrades turned the cinema into a green multiplex – features like energy-saving LED lights and “self-cooling” air conditioning help keep the cinema’s carbon emissions low.

The future of Yishun 10

Recently, it was announced that Yishun 10 would be redeveloped for residential purposes. The new residential building would also include commercial space on the 1st floor.

With news of the redevelopment, Yishun residents and those who frequent the space have been reflecting on what Yishun 10 means to them. For many, it isn’t just another building, but a familiar landmark filled with memories, shaped not only by its pioneering cinema days but also by the many iconic tenants that have come and gone through its history.

Screenshot from: Reddit

But don’t worry if you haven’t had your fill of Arnold’s Fried Chicken at Yishun 10 yet – Frasers Property, the building’s owner, says that it’s still business as usual for now. There isn’t a confirmed date for when Yishun 10 will close for the last time, though they will update should there be any new developments, so you can still head down and enjoy another movie in the meantime.

Yishun 10 will always be an important part of Singapore’s cinema history

I’m sure many of us have made core memories at the movies, so it’s sad to see yet another cinema bite the dust. But while it still stands, take the time to visit soon and relive some memories.
