Toa Payoh Trail

Hi~Everyone!!!

I live in Toa Payoh since i came to Singapore until now. I am very grad this is where I live. It's a good and convenient place to live. Toa Payoh provides us a better environment and gives us a better standard of living.

For example, Toa Payoh interchange is the first air-conditioned bus interchange in the country, which was completed in 2002 and officially opened by then Transport Minister.

The interchange has many bus routes ,so it is very convenient if you need to go to anywhere in Singapore.Besides the bus , it has a direct connection from the bus interchange to the Toa Payoh MRT Station on the North South Line.

The bus interchange also participated in the Exercise Northstar V( Anti-Terrorism Exercise) on January 8, 2006.

Except of the convenient transportantion, Toa Payoh is also providing quality healthcare,such as clinics,hospitals and medical research facilities. For instance, Singapore Chung Hwa Medical Institution.

Chung Hwa Medical Institution is one of the most established not-for-profit providers of complementary TCM services in Singapore. It was established in 1952 and currently operates 4 clinics in the country. It is associated with Singapore Chinese Physicians Association, the largest TCM practitioner organisation in Singapore.It also is the largest traditional Chinese medicine academic organization in Singapore.

Toa payoh polyclinics also is example. It is near my house and I would like to go there when I was sick. It also gives good services and medical amenities.

Toa Payoh Town Park is also the first park in Singapore.It was developed in the 1970. It was a very popular for wedding couples, especially those recapturing fashion of the 1970s. The main features of the park are the observation tower and the landscaped pond surrounded by willowing trees. Today, the Toa Payoh Town is now furnished with amenities such as open-concept restrooms, a large pavilion with stage for organized activities, rustic-looking gazebos for the relaxation of visitors and brightly coloured pathways for an enjoyable stroll or jog around the park. The observation tower has also been rejuvenated.

It also is a good place for leisure. We always can see many senior citizens came to the park and chat or jogging.
