Geylang Serai Ramadhan Bazaar 2017

This year the Bazaar at Geylang Serai was really very interesting. A lot of new street food looked so beautiful, delicious and yummy. It sure attracted a lot of crowds not only from the muslim community but also from other races too as well as tourists. I really recommended a must visit. It was not very cramped as the bazaar was well spaced on each side of the roads so the crowd was well spread out.  The bazaar was around the Geylang Serai Market, Joo Chiat Compled and along Haig Road and will be from May 25th to June 24th 2017. Of course best time to visit was at night, where the streets were lighted up and  good for photography.





This stall was really having the longest queue when I was there. 










Beside food stalls, there's other stalls selling clothes, curtains, carpets, etc



There's even car show room at the bazaar.

Geylang Serai - Hari Raya Pausa 2011 - Part 2


Continued from my walk along Geylang Serai, I saw these beautiful decorations fronting Joo Chiat Complex.

Love these butterflies deco.

Very interesting to see what these stalls are selling.

Rows of stalls selling floor carpets and they are not cheap either. Some cost more than a $100.


Beautiful clothes on sale.




Ready made curtains. Sometimes it is cheaper to get those ready made curtains than to tailor made. They have all sizes of curtains on sale here.

Geylang Serai - Hari Raya Puasa 2011 Part 1

We are a multi racial country and this month the muslim will be celebrating Hari Raya Puasa. Different ethnic group in our country have their own little town which sell mainly the familar stuff of each ethnic group.

For the Chinese, we have our Chinatown, the Indians have their Little India, the Eurasians have Orchard Road and the muslims have Geylang Serai but really we actually shop in each other town and all over Singapore.

On August 30th, the muslim will be celebrating Hari Raya Puasa so Geylang Serai is suddenly filled with huge crowds busy shopping for the festival. Even non muslim went to Geylang Serai to soak in the atmosphere and to shop too. I was there to eat my favourite nasi padang in the hawker centre. :)

Saw these jars of cookies at the stall reminded me of my shopping in chinatown during Chinese New Year.



Besides cookies, there were cooked and delicious food at the Bazaar.





Tomorrow I will share photos of non food stalls at Geylang Serai and Friday Skywatch I will share the light up of the streets along Geylang Serai.

My World Tuesday - Joo Chiat Complex

The Hari Raya Puasa is next month on 10th September 2010.

Every year Geylang Serai will be lighted up to celebrate the occasion. This year the light up will be from 6th August to 10th September 2010.

Even the malls in Geylang Serai are decorated too. Joo Chiat Complex is a very old mall and I used to come here to make/renew my passport when the old immigration department was at Joo Chiat Complex. But now the immigration department has shifted to Lavender Street.







As Geylang Serai used to be a malay village, so the goods sold here are mostly catered to the muslim population.
