Singapore - Emerald Hill

Orchard Road is just nearby, don't you want to come and see this hidden garden in the bustling city? A tranquil urban oasis amidst the hustle and bustle. Who could imagine that in the 1830s, due to the good prices of spices, Orchard Road, including the area around Emerald Hill, was once filled with nutmeg plantations. In the early 20th century, Peranakan Chinese who made their fortunes in trade began to seek land here to build their own luxurious residences. From the row of Chinese Baroque architecture, one can reminisce about the past glory. Each mansion has its own unique features, and today it is a historical conservation area in Singapore, a place like a peach blossom land where time stands still. This charming street is not far from Orchard Road. The buildings are beautiful and full of historical charm. If you also like architecture, it's worth a visit. Hurry and bring your besties or girlfriend to check in, a niche attraction in Singapore that's really photogenic.
