It 's a wonderful opportunity that i can take part in this trail . Since 2004 , the first year i came to Singapore . Toa payoh is the first place which i was stayed until now . Although i 'm not a local resident , but i still feel that Toa payoh is the most joyful and memorable place for my mum and I .


As a student of FTPSS , i always haunting in Toa payoh central with my buddies . Such as food court , the National Library and of course , our favourate place -POPURLA ! After school , we ate at foodcourt , studied at library then shopping at popurla ! Almost five years passed , everyplace in Toa payoh fills with our cheerfulness .


To know more about Toa payoh , I do research some informations . Sad that the old bus interchange was demolished in 1999 to make way for the HDB Hub (HDB shift their HQ from Jalan Bukit Merah to here). So the bus interchange relocate to a temporary location opposite its original site and then shift back after the Hub was completed. (F1)Of course, the nearby Toa Payoh Library was another must visit then when I needed to borrow some books. In front of the library, there was a fountain but now it’s replaced by amphitheatre. The library together with the fountain was built in 1973.(F2)


However , Toa payoh is also a helpful and conveniency place for everybody . Chung Hwa (Zhong Hua) Medical Institution is the largest TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) organization in Singapore, and it offers free TCM medical consultation to the general public regardless of race, nationality and religion. It is locate at Lorong 4 Toa payoh . And TOA PAYOH swimming complex is locate at lorong 6.


I found living in Toa payoh was the happiest time for me and i hope these informations would help you to know more about Toa payoh .
