Explore Singapore with Doraemon- Haw Par Villa

Many Singaporeans or even tourists may know Haw Par Villa or Tiger Balm. It had its glorious moments and often flown in with many visitors. Many might know the place for its Dragon, with boat ride to the 10 Courts of Hell and the most exciting ride would be the water coaster.

It used to cost a lot for the entrance fees but now, it is free of charge and it has changed a lot. The Dragon and the water coaster are no longer there. In order to attract the crowd back, a MRT Line is now constructed for easier access to the place.

At Haw Par Villa, you can find many sculptures with Chinese Mythology stories and the life after death. It is a great place to visit with. Doraemon glad to visit to Haw Par Villa. As it is a educational and Doraemon knew a lot of Chinese culture and the values.

Circle Line Open House

On the 17 April 2010, 11 stations at Circle Line will officially open to the public. Before it commerces operations, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and SMRT held an Open house today.

My dad and I went to MacPherson station this morning for the open house. There are LIVE performance at this station. Members of the public are so excited to ride the first bounce train which arrives from Tai Seng station.

We board the train towards Dhoby Ghaut and alight at Bras Basah station. We head down to the Singapore Museum and to see the gallery. We thought of seeing the Mummy gallery but it was so long queue that we gave up on this gallery and see another gallery..

After that, we walk back to Brash Basah station and there are so many events going on at the same time. It was out of control and people starting to cut the queue to get the free gift..

After that, my dad wanted to take passport photo so I thought of Suntec City. We board the train towards Dhoby Ghaut as it is one station away and it will bounce back to Tai Seng.

We alight at Esplanade station and walk to Suntec City. We visited to Carrefour as well. After that, we went to the exhibition hall before we board the train back. We board the train to Paya Lebar and see the layout of the station.

I am surprised that this station have three platform!! I am assume that when it is peak hours, the middle platform will be operational to cease the human traffic.

After that, we board the train to MacPherson station and watched the opera performance before going home.
