Photo History

Friday, March 20, 2009

i've been living in toa payoh for more than a decade,now.
what i like about this place is because, it is soooooooooooooooo - convenient.
there's shopping amenities, community centres,park,stadium,swimming complex and even a sports hall.
toa payoh is a district located in the central region of singapore.
it commonly refers to the housing and development board housing estate of toa payoh new town, one of the earliest public housing estates in singapore.
from my research i actually discovered the meaning of toa payoh.
toa payoh is actually a hokkien language reference to big swamp.
and it was once an extensive and notorious squatter district(can you believe it?)
i can't believe how much changes toa payoh had gone through over the decades.
nevertheless, i am proud to be a part of this history ;D
here are some pictures that i have captured, specially for this trail.
hope you guys, enjoyed it (:
