On Foot- Near Raffles Hospital

i visited 2 places. One was the Park View square opposite Raffles Hopsital, and the other was the vicinity of the Sultan Mosque

Park View square. We called it the "Wayne Industries" building, because of the use of black facade and tinted glass, which somehow represented the Wayne Industries office blocks in Gotham. 

Even from the outside you can see the influences of mythology, history and art. Pirates use to carve spirits on the mast of boats, believing the soul of the boat was at its mast. A good reason why the building stands out is probably beacuse of its colour and height. Bugis street sits in the right of conserved area, and all the buildings are not skyscrapers.

I believe that would be Atlas, the Greek god believed to hold the sky up to prevent it from falling. The disk that he is mostly depicted as carrying is known as the Celestial Sphere. That's a lot of weight to bear.

Now do you believe me?

The ceiling of the entrance "gate". I thought the way the lamp was built from the bottom looks unique, so I took a photo of it

Street view, so you know when not to miss it.

Upon entrance you would be greeted by 8 statues, 4 on the left and on the right. I do not know any sort of particular relation that they're there. I don't even know all of these people. And why are they all men?-.-

A side view, in case you're tempted to climb up and pose in fron of the statues, here's a good reason not to. 

Newton the Physicist. I'm sure we've all heard the story of discovering gravity, one way or another. Involves sitting under a apple tree.

Chopin the musician. He composed, he performed. You can find him on Youtube.

Dali! The artistic genius. His work is on display at the ArtScience Museum, and I can visit him as well as Van Gogh. Just went to check the ticketing Prices. Wait for me, Dali! I'm coming soon! After I saved up to $24

Dante is an Italian poet in the 1200s, which probably explains why I haven't heard of such a person before. He makes Italian sound like Russian.

The other 4 statues. For some reason these individual shots of the statues are not there, so I can't show it to you here. I remember Lincoln, Sun Yet San, and Churchill? Oh, I'm not very sure, but visit the Park View Square when you have the time, it's worth a good look around.

They have many influences, and the most prominent can be seen by the giant golden crane up there, see?

For some reason this reminded me of the hanging gardens of Babylon. I don't know if they still exist.

The other side of the corridor.

Wheelchair access elevators. Nice.

Some close-up shots of some flowers

Next to Park View. The office building has the edge facing the camera, which looks like a knife cutting the sky.

Wide angle shot of the building. 

Bali Lane. Not to far.

Outside the bus stop, mainly restaurants and bars, but there is a Records shop you can visit

Home to an art studio too! A quick art lesson when you're waiting for somebody who's come late.

This is Haji Lane. Avid photography buffs would be very familiar with the street, given the close proximity of the 2 streets means that it is closed to any form of traffic, and it is perfectly safe and logical to walk on the middle of the road. Getting a deserted Haji Lane as your backdrop would be difficult, given that there would be people walking on it any point of day.

Slightly to the left. The street is made up of 2 streets of 2 storey buildings, and it makes you feel tall. No, really.

Somewhere outside again, but it was threatening to rain and I had to make a run for it.

An old office building. 

Look, a giant mentos!

Plenty of graffitti here too, you'll find a spot that you'll like.

Couple' o shots..

It's a wrap! You know where to go now.
