The only hobby which reduce your weight, gives you traffic control sense. Visiting machpherson and circuit road was pacifying...
I don’t like rafia string 😂
If you’re a Muslim, regardless of your racial background being Javanese or what. These practices are forbidden in Islam, it’s simple. This is considered as shirk the eating of glass, whipping, things the summoning of jinss. It’s forbidden is Islam and its sad to see Muslims of sg still practicing this.
My favorite is Hokkian Bak Chang ❤
My favourite is the Nonya ones. A little bit sweet is nice.
Amazing place to enjoy
Hello friend, I always enjoy watching your horror, this looks like a fun children’s festival, hope you are doing fine. 😊 Let’s stay in touch. 💜
They’re just trying to tire the dog out and get it in to deeper water where the trap will be sprung.
We believe that the nourishment children gain from moving their bodies and learning through games and play is significant. The adults also seem to share in the joy, seeing the children’s smiling faces as they engage enthusiastically! We enjoyed this groundbreaking event, while also feeling your identity.☝️✨ Yosh and Iku
Very cool night market, interesting video..
nice and fun! :)
Singapore's children are lucky to have such a fun event. Thank you for another interesting video.
Great bonding time for the kids and their parents. Wonderful to see the folks send their selfies up the Kaleidoscope wall. The pebble painting instil creativity in the kids.

Wow beautiful night market ....Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
Wow this is a great rain walk...I loved it and the neighborhood is so beautiful👍👍👍
During this period, Marine Bay is enveloped in light art, with masterpieces of light shining in every corner.✨ The pieces, made from recycled materials, come to life, and the rocks that lwagumi brought from Australia, its very existence seems to be a symbol of timeless artistry. Yosh and Iku
What're the top 5 stalls to try at the food centre?
Hi wnose, you can google Tiong Bahru Food Centre and there will be lots of inputs from foodies on the tops stalls. Thanks for watching 😀
Men are so incredible!!! Their ability to create and build such marvelous structures are beyond amazing. 😊❤️
Thank you Ms Loving for leaving this beautiful comment 😀
Very beautiful night market. Thanks for showing.😊
Thank you my friend.
Yea, I remembered the story behind this festival. My mother used to tell us when she is making the bak chang. Two to three days prior to the actual day, my mother will be busy buying the leaves and ingredients. She will wrap the bak changs, cook them and hang them on the bamboo sticks to let the water drip like hanging out the laundry in the kitchen. So the kitchen is a no go zone and the house will be filled with the smell the bak chang leaves. Still clearly remember the fragrance even after all these years especially since my Chinese birthday is one day after the Dumpling Festival so double the joy (bak chang and red egg) 😁
very nice video scene
Thank you for your nice comment 😀
Wow I love this video and now I'm your new subscriber please stay connected and have a great day ❤️
Hi my new Khmer Canada friend. I have subbed back to your channel (118). I suggest that you keep the music to the intro of your videos. Most people would like to hear the ambient sounds of the places that you are visiting. Happy vlogging!
@@SingaporeCityWalks your feedback is mean a lot to me thanks 🙏👍 and see you around my friend ❤️
Thank you
Thank you for watching!
The neon lights of Chinatown are dazzling, and colorful tuk-tuks speed by. Adult and street musicians create an impromptu symphony, while performers, against the canvas of the city, create an explosion of creativity. Each flame at the food stalls tells the story of culinary artistry. The video footage moves through the chaos, capturing the rhythm of the street. The bustling market, cheerful vendors, and lively customers all come together in a vivid portrayal of Bangkok’s night, a living testament to the city’s undying spirit!☝️✨ Yosh and Iku
Chinatown Bangkok is always busy at night from Tuesday to Sunday as Monday is compulsory rest day as required by the authorities for street cleaning. There's plenty of street food and restaurant-standard food by the street. There's Michelin starred hawker stalls too but I didn't locate them. Buskers keep the place lively as music drift through the air above the traffic and chatterings. Chinatown Bangkok is very bustling and dazzling! Visited by tourists and locals. I will be sharing a video on a food street in Bangkok that is bustling and almost solely visited by locals. This video will be shared in a couple of weeks while I clear my backlog of overseas videos.
Wonderful
Thank you for your nice comment!
Love this! Love this! Love this! So nice to go on a trip with you. So pleasant and calming.
Thank you very much AW!
Great Video, Love this airport and country
Me too. Love this beautiful country too. Also glad that you like this video.
I just had some rice dumpling yesterday. It’s very delicious but very filling 👍🏼😆
Are rice dumplings easily available in Canada? Do you have different flavours like those in this video?
@@SingaporeCityWalks yes the Asian supermarket sells it. It’s most similar to those ones you showed 😁💜 which is a good thing. Canada is getting more multicultural for sure 👍🏼
Nice video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for your compliment 😊
Beautiful festival bazaar ❤❤
Thank you my friend 😀
Many thanks for this amazing video my friend....!!!!!
Thank you for supporting my channel, my friend from India ❤
The always vibrant Waterloo Street seems to be even more lively with the Dumpling Festival Bazaar. In preparation for the Dragon Boat Race, many dumplings are lined up as a tribute to tradition. The video camera captures the shopkeepers diligently explaining their products, and you can feel the essence of your video style in their communication!☝️✨ Yosh and Iku
Thank you Yosh and Iku for your comment. There are so many different flavours of rice dumplings. There's even a difference in the wrappings which I did not know till now. I first asked the young lady to introduce her vegetarian dumplings. On seeing her enthusiasm, I decided to ask the older vendors to introduce theirs. To my surprise, they were so friendly and obliging. So instead of simply showing dumplings all wrapped up and looking similar (except for the coloured strings), this video is able to show the different types of dumplings through the explanation by the vendors. 😀
Very odd - throwing dumplings in a river to supposedly scare away fish from a dead body (which is not found), somehow turns into a festival of eating dumplings at a specific time. It seemed to be mainly older people buying the dumplings, so maybe this is not a tradition that appeals greatly to younger people. Will you be showing the dragon boat racing?
Qu Yuan was a renowned poet and his suicide was recorded in China's history. So I think the throwing of dumplings to feed the fishes may have some truth in it. This practice of eating rice dumplings and dragon boat racing has survived centuries and is still practiced today. Dragon boat racing has become International events with Western countries taking part. You are right that older folks are the ones buying the dumplings. I hope this tradition will live on. My dragon boat racing video last year was well received. However, this year, I will be travelling in Sichuan and will miss the races in Singapore.
looks like there are a plethora of flavours of bak chang sold at Waterloo Street including the lotus paste, black pepper chicken and Nyonya pulut hitam changs. it's interesting to feature a rice dumpling wrapped in a fragrant pandan leaf that gives out a pleasant aroma upon boiling.
The selection of Bak Changs at Waterloo Street suits all budgets. From the affordable ones to the more pricey ones. Most of the vendors were happy to be recorded as they understand that this will in some way raise their profile. I have yet to try the bak changs wrapped in pandan leaves and the sweet-salty ones. There are so many types there.
Still prefers the traditional flavour ❤
Don’t like used rafia strings 😂
Mouth watering. I just completed a 3-month walk in Taiwan. It’s turning Japanese. All newer foodcourts are Japanese. For those Chinese who like to travel Japan, may think Taiwan, much much cheaper. Singapore is trying to maintain its Chineseness. Dragon boat festival is very Chinese, a patriotic poet as shown in the walk video. Nyonya dumpling not my favorite but the Bakchang is very good. Chinese in that region make good dumplings.
Wow, 3 months in Taiwan. Where were you during the earthquake? I went there, a week after the earthquake. Saw many Japanese stores there. The Qing Dynasty ceded Taiwan (Formosa) to Japan from 1895 to 1945. So it's not surprising to see many Japanese establishment there.
@@SingaporeCityWalks We were in Taoyuan during earthquake,quite a shock, buildings damaged in Hualien. Somewhat same as the SF I experienced. About the ‘Japanese things’ even many Taiwanese smart guys don’t understand. I covered temples, traditional markets, street food, underground mall for my wife to shop her dresses. And, the temple festivals! I have been to Taiwan in 1978, saw ‘Republic of China’ in glorious days and now vanishing. Walk video is a great life experience. By walking we get to know the places much much better. Walk the talk. Videos refresh memory as we exercise through the streets. With latest 3axis camera, video while walking is so easy. Past 2 years I covered Msia/Spore, thorough. This year Taiwan, next year mainland including Hong Kong.
@@marktan3668 Just visited your channel. You have made many walking tour videos. It's good to see the daily lives of people on the streets. I'll go through some of them when I am free. Going to Sichuan for 2 weeks this coming monday.
Mantap kali Bro.. Bak cang nya ber macam macam rasa... Singapura memang paling enak utk jalan jalan dan cari makanan yg enak enak semua serba ada... Good Good.. Salam Sehat dari Medan Indonesia.
Thank you my friend from Medan Indonesia ❤
Thanks for the great video's i love them I've been 10 times in Singapore, because my son lived there, and i love Singapore So i love to see your films Greets Elly from Belgium Europe
Thank you @EllyDeGruyter for your nice comment. Your son must be doing well here as Singapore is a great city. I hope to visit Belgium in the future.
This looks like a great light show with amazing art installations. 😊 Hope you are doing fine, let’s stay in touch. 💜
Thank you Ms Lilac. Please go and visit on week days. Its too crowded on weekends.
@@SingaporeCityWalks Are you going to Gastrobeats? 😊
@@MsLilac88 I went already. Had posted a video on it. Plenty of nice food there. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qI6MqLRwnb3LfMY.htmlsi=EQznxQv9AYurPnQu
@@SingaporeCityWalksI already watched your recent video. 😊
@@MsLilac88 Thank you for your support.
Incredible installations so beautiful really great to see Singapore at night beautiful capture 👍❤️👍❤️
This is a really creative and wonderful night festival. The light installations are so beautiful. Glad you've enjoyed it ❤️
A glittering festival where lights dance in the night in the heart of Singapore, art installations made from eco-friendly dreams sparkle, and people blend in and become part of the atmosphere. The entertaining BOB the nice world tells a story,Iwgumi Air Scape features delicate tones that different from the material to and BottleBlooms brings beauty to life from discarded items.🌟🪅 A gallery of innovation and community, where creativity and sustainability come together as one,this is a video production of the Festival of Light and Life.💫 Yosh and Iku
This is a light festival that I look forward to every year. The light installations are very creative and eco friendly. You have described it very well as 'a gallery of innovation and community..." Iwagumi (Japanese rock formation) is Japanese art of aquascape where small rocks are are placed in tanks to form underwater landscaping. In iLight Singapore, they recreated this on land, a few thousand times larger. Walking through this installation gives a sense of awe and mystic. A wonderful creation.
Some very interesting items - I particularly liked the Iwagumi display. Thank you!
I like many of the items. These 2 stand out for me. Iwagu - for the uniqueness - giant boulders in the heart of the city. And Kickit Team Tennis - for bringing strangers together to play a spontaneous game of 'tennis'. People pass by, play a game, and move on their way. This is something very lacking in our stressful society.
The fun events in Singapore are endless, I am sure you are so busying filming all these great events all the time!
So much things are happening here and I am very happy filming all these. My overseas videos have to wait longer to be edited and shared. Travelling to Sichuan next week. Going hiking at Mount Siguniang (Four Girls Mountain 四姑娘山).
Thank you for sharing this fun light show, so many creative artworks, very dreamy and cool! Love these giant light rocks! the lit up swing looks amusing too.
The giant boulders set against the city scape was very creative. Kickit Team Tennis is my favourite. People passing by just walk in, challenge one another, then walk away. For other installations, people just stand and look.
Amazing views and very nice upload ❤ Great video 🤞🍀
Thank you for you nice comment, my friend from Cambodia. I had been to Kulen Mountain and Lingam River. Thanks for sharing that.
Awesome! So fun to be on a journey with you!
Thank you AW.
Thk goodness, I wasn't there when Desmond Lee was walking at that spot. Otherwise, it wld had spoilt my day.! Is there a need for his securities to tell others to stay away & to keep the distance from him...???!!!🤔🤨 If hes' so VIP, then just rather reserve the whole arena empty just for him alone to walk, without anyone else. Simple right...???!!!☝️🤔
I felt the same and decided to keep the footage intact. However, I think the problem is with his minders, not him. He is good in my opinion.
just dropped you an email with some exciting ideas for your channel. Would love for you to check it out!
I have replied. Thank you for contacting me.
3:34 yummy banana roti 🙂
