I could not find a category for these pictures but I still wanted to show them as they tell something about Singapore. So this is my eclectic selection of views of Singapore. Enjoy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I start with a few quirky pictures \/ Je commence avec quelques photos insolites<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My dentist is in Novena at the 13th floor and this is the view from there. Not bad, eh?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following pictures are Orchard road and Scotts road, my neck of the hood. Did you know that Orchard road was named for the nutmeg, pepper and fruit orchards that used to lie on both sides of the street in the 1840s? Initially, the nutmeg plantations prospered but their success was short-lived. The collapse of nutmeg prices worldwide, coupled with an outbreak of disease and pests meant that only a few plantations were still running by the 1860s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les photos suivantes sont Orchard road et Scotts road, mon coin. Saviez-vous qu’Orchard road doit son nom aux vergers de noix de muscade, de poivre et de fruits qui se trouvaient des deux c\u00f4t\u00e9s de la rue dans les ann\u00e9es 1840 ? Au d\u00e9part, les plantations de noix de muscade ont prosp\u00e9r\u00e9 mais leur succ\u00e8s a \u00e9t\u00e9 de courte dur\u00e9e. L’effondrement des prix de la noix de muscade dans le monde, associ\u00e9 \u00e0 une \u00e9pid\u00e9mie de maladies et de parasites, ont fait que seules quelques plantations \u00e9taient encore en activit\u00e9 dans les ann\u00e9es 1860.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are some nice looking buildings, but I don’t remember where they are in Singapore… It could make for a fun treasure hunt!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ci-dessous quelques jolis b\u00e2timents, mais je ne me souviens pas o\u00f9 ils se trouvent \u00e0 Singapour\u2026 Cela pourrait faire une chasse au tr\u00e9sor amusante !<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
