Redstone's list of places to go!

[redstone]

The following are the traffic lights I am refering to.

They're crossing lights, and put the trains, rather than cars in priority.

By KTMB..

It sure does look like traffic lights in Malaysia.

at railway crossings, the trains always have the priority at the lights. you can't stop a train just to let cars pass can you? it doesn't make sense. i think there's an international law that govern this... not sure where to look for it though.

Erm I think he is trying to explain to me about crossing lights, since apparently I mistaken them as common traffic lights.

I'm an explorer. Going to places rarely seen, that doesn't look like Singapore. Going off the beaten track. Going the road less travelled.


Tiong Bahru, the vicinity of Tiong Bahru CC, and the area opposite: Very nice old apartments

Parkview Square: Grand, extravagant, oppulent architecture out of New York.

MacKenzie Road: Malaysia style street scenes in Singapore. Very old dilapidated shophouses.

Shuang Lin Monastery: Very serene and tranquil. Unique, rare blended architecture (you'll be suprised....). Just don't take pics of the statues of the gods.

Kusu Island: Very peaceful, very beautiful

St John's Island: Kampong style housing.

Kampong Lor. Buangkok: (no need to explain) :bsmilie:

thanks for these info...sure check it out one of these day

btw "Just don't take pics of the statues of the gods." any reason why? :dunno:

For some, its superstition but imo, its more out of respect than anything else (if you're not a religious person) i'd suppose.

hmm, i've shot several railway photos because its just behind my block (sort of lah). din know im stepping into m'sia land. :sweat:

 

[redstone]

There are signs within the halls saying no photography.

Other temples also have signs.

Today's ST, saying kampong off Clementi Ave 6... :bigeyes:

Yeah, two families living in a kampong for several decades. I always believed my geography teacher who cited that Singapore is only 90% urbanised.

The KTMB tracks? Isn't that trespassing?

i think it should be ok as long as you don't get run down by the passing train :bigeyes: :bsmilie:

I tried walking towards the post and the man, apparently he is a Singaporean. So much for the "land of Malaysia". Haha.

i asked the guard at the "guardhouse" (more like a hut than anything) and he said i was free to shoot around. So okay lor...

seriously, if you ever want to go there and have a shoot around again, you can always start an outing. it's better to go in a group.

 

[Klose]

I will be going down there next tuesday morning no outing who's interested?
