Kreta Ayer Wet Market-Part 1

This is the basement of Kreta Ayer. It is known as Kreta Ayer Wet Market. Why wet market? The floors and surroundings are often routinely sprayed and washed with water—to the extent of flooding it at frequent intervals—which gave it the name "wet market". (For more information on wet market, you can view it from here.

Look at the newly renovated market, it is spacious and very clean. It is so spacious and suitable for those in wheelchairs to move about. Bravo because the population is aging and we need more places to be user friendly to those in wheelchairs.

Pork Stalls

Fruits Stalls

Vegetables Stalls

The floorings of the above stalls are cleaner and drier. My next post will show the seafood stalls that have wet floorings...lol

Kreta Ayer Market-Shopping

Still at Kreta Ayer. Kreta Ayer Market consists of a wet market in the basement and shops on the ground floor while the food centre is on the 2nd floor (which I had posted a photo yesterday).

On the ground floor are many shops selling clothes, shoes, bags, cloths, etc. It is very spacious and it is non air conditioned. But you wont feel sweaty although it is non air conditioned because it had a very high ceiling and plenty of walking spaces.

This is the place to shop and you could bargain for your products.

My next few posts would be the wet market in the basement. It would be very interesting to some of you all.

Kreta Ayer Food Centre

Kreta Ayer (meaning bullock cart in Malay) Food Centre was renovated and recently reopen to the public. This is the food centre where most old tenants are back selling the good and yummy food. The new place is airy and spacious and now have more tables and chairs for us to enjoy our food.

Skywatch-Planes

I was too late with my camera when I saw the apache flying above me. By the time I grabbed the camera, the plane fly too far away. Anyway I have another photo of the apaches in my previous post.

Another plane flying past after the apache. I guess it is always at this time of the year where the airforce are rehearsing for the National Day parade next month. So next month, I must tried to capture these planes as they fly past me. :)

Thanks to Tom for hosting Sky Watch. For other sky watchers, you can go to Tom's skywatch blog.

Underpass

This underpass is located near Novena Square and United Square. It was a long underpass and I found the underpass to be very clean. But the longest underpass I took would be at the The Link at City Hall MRT Station.

You can view another underpass in my previous post.
