My World Tuesday - Sculpture Square

This is a methodist church known as Kampong Kapor Methodist Church at Middle Road. It has a long history and is one of the oldest church in Singapore and protected as a heritage building. It has since moved to a new location and this present church is part of the sculpture square.



The church was formerly known as "Malay Church" because they conduct their services in malay to cater to malay speaking christains. For more of its rich history you can view their offical website.

Love the beautiful windows of the church.

Around the church you can also see lots of sculptures.




For more information on the sculpture square you can view their official website .

    Beautiful and interesting church to have lots of sculptures around. It's good that it's protected for the next generations.

    The buildings are all so cheerful! Love the details, and the "wellkeptness" compared to Niger!
