In this episode of Let's Uncover, we will explore the secrets of Telok Ayer with Bruce Mathieu, an ex-offender who had been in and out of prison and is now a 'desistor' providing support to newly released offenders.
Telok Ayer is a historically significant area in Singapore, located along the old shoreline of the city. It was once a bustling port neighbourhood and landing ground for immigrants, giving it its name Telok Ayer in Malay, which translates to ‘bay water’. The area has since been transformed into a luxury business district, with many of the shophouses still standing today as reminders of its past.
In this video, we visited one of the must-see attractions in Telok Ayer - Thian Hock Keng Temple, the oldest Hokkien temple in Singapore. Built-in the mid-19th century, the temple played a significant role in the early Chinese settlement in Singapore and is an important cultural landmark.
The duo also stepped into Okdodoo, a musical box workshop in Singapore and was transported to an intricately designed space filled with the resonating sounds of creativity. There you can find over 100 music boxes and gifts, each boasting a freestyle design flair that makes every piece an original. Experience the magic of Okdodoo's workshops and create something special to take home!
Telok Ayer remains an important part of Singapore's history and culture. Its streets are lined with beautiful shophouses that have been carefully preserved over time, making it a popular destination for tourists and locals alike.
