@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV I buy a lot of my supplies from Art Friend! But I am also a big fan of this bookshop on the 4th floor: Basheer Graphic Books. I never taught art in my life... but when I was in secondary school, I took art classes at Palin Art School...
@@AmbientWalking I never actually "explored" the other floors of this place. I remembered going into Art Friend and it was like being in another world😄 Is Basheer graphic books still around?
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Yes. Basheer Books is still there. On the 4th floor. Next to Popular. I always go. It's a great place if you like architecture books. Very comprehensive!
Goid morning Alan....thank you for the vid....I usually go to Raffles coz' we always meet there with my elder son....I seldom pass by Bras Basah....always rode at MRT Stations from Ang Mo Kio.....thanks a nice vid....more.power to you😀😁😘
I enjoyed watching this video Bras Basah totally new to me I must say even though I was bore and grew up in this country, city. it's beautiful, being transformed. I certainly love to see it again. Thanks for sharing make me home sick.
@@louth1770 Nice 😊 Glad to know they were pleased. I be doing a bit more of Bras Basah in another channel. Will share more details in the community page once I am ready to announce it 😊
Glad you enjoyed it Simon 😊 Had a bit of time over the weekend to film and walk. Hoping to squeeze a bit of time this coming weekend so I got stuff to publish next week 😂
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV good job on the walk. But I realized you aren't too familiar with that area.... Gone into the back alleys few times. 😊 Or was that done on purpose
@@gotmyonu1027 Yeah the spaces in between buildings I am not too familiar. I just knew I needed to get to Bras Basah Complex, so I decided to "bash" through the buildings 😂
That admire In Singapore And modernity and its historical Past This place and a cultural Complex . Fun and learning . Loved this tour. Excellent vídeo 👏 Thanks☺️
Glad you enjoyed it Fatima 😊 Very thankful our urban planners made very conscious decisions about retaining and upgrading many of our historic buildings for the future
16:12 I really missed this shopping center. I used to frequent Basheer bookstore on the top level and comic book shop on the 2nd level. But that was like eons ago.
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Like years back, long before the pandemic. I followed Basheer in IG, but since the pandemic hasn't seen any updates. That worries me.
_Thanks so much Alan for this video. It was very nostalgic for me because my old secondary school was SJI in Stamford road ,before it was relocated to Malcolm Road in 1988 and you walked by several of my old school haunts like Waterloo Street and Centre and BBC. That time CHIJMES was still CHIJ Convent school. Much appreciated and oh I really wish for those carefree good old days!_ 😃👍
Glad to know I managed to capture a place filled with memories for you 😊 I remember Bras Basah Complex was the place my mom brought me for art classes. It was a nightmare for me for I didn't have much talent for artistic pursuits 😂
Thanks for the feedback Lim 😊 Do you happen to have the name of the store or the address? I can remember it as a point of note and pass by it for future walks
Haha. That would be quite challenging. I enjoy a good meal here and there but I am not exactly a foodie that knows where the good place are. You can watch this guy's channel who speaks in depth of the local food in Singapore. I always look at his videos if I do need an inspiration of what to ear - ua-cam.com/channels/8Xc2vaj8nLxU77SOf2MO2A.html
I'm developing a very very long list of places to visit in Singapore when I go, hopefully soon. Of our governments can finish their negotiations, might be this year, fingers crossed
@@VictorNobrega1986 Haha I could if I ever come by Sydney in the future. That said the videos might not do well so I have to make calculated choices on whether (or how many) to upload. The viewers are leaning towards Singapore videos, so if I post another country (or city), the viewers may not take to it. By the way how are your film walks coming along?
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV covid has kept me working 6 days and sleeping the 7th. I have a list of suburbs or walking ideas but no time. Plus kids. I'll get there eventually. If I ever get to Singapore I'll record a long walk for sure. What do you use to hold your camera/phone? I was thinking of getting a selfie stick?
@@VictorNobrega1986 That's a tough working schedule but I respect that. Working hard to put food on the table for your family. Pace yourself when doing the walks. Bit by bit you will learn and figure out what's the best way to film and walk. You can check the equipment I use in the description. You will need a gimbal for sure. It pays a important part in steadying the footage. I use a selfie stick so I can film at eye level.
Incidentally ,for fans of Teresa teng who want to purchase her lps ,the music store sells brand new imported lps freshly pressed from japan for less than 100 bucks ,the quality is much better than those 2nd hand lps(formerly purchased for 6.50 between 1975 to 1984 polgram record) now sold for a few hundreds bucks a piece. I have purchased over 1k worth of imported Teresa Cds from this cd shop.

Very happy that you visited Bras Basah Complex. It's my favourite building in Singapore. Thanks, Alan.

Thank you so much.

Thank you for walking around Bras Basah, one of my fave place to go while visiting Singapore. Can't wait to go here again, once the virus gone.
Glad to hear from you Yuliono ☺️ hope you will have a chance to visit again. What stall do you visit at bras basah?

@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV and always the best atitude...☺️
Nice Video. Lovely. Keep sharing. GREAT JOB !!!
Thank you 🤗
Love it. Please do more of this
Will do my best 😊
16:12 I really missed this shopping center. I used to frequent Basheer bookstore on the top level and comic book shop on the 2nd level. But that was like eons ago.
🤔 Do you happen to know if the bookstore is still around? How long ago was it?
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Like years back, long before the pandemic. I followed Basheer in IG, but since the pandemic hasn't seen any updates. That worries me.
@@manchesterunitedno7 Will try to pop by one day to see if its still around. Hopefully it didn't close like so many other businesses
Basement food court was impressive
its got a few decent choices 😊
Another new video I have enjoyed. Thank you very much!🙂
Thanks APS 😊
Perfect time for enjoying your video.
Thanks S&S 😊 The weekend is almost here and it too is my time to sit back and watch videos as well
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV 😅

@Discovery Walking Tours TV _No worries mate. No doubt you have talent in social media skills!_ 😉
Lolz. It's ironic how different the world has become. So many ways to showcase artistic talents these days
_@Discovery Walking Tours TV _ True that Alan. It is absolutely a new normal now in more ways than one_
Hey friend, good job! Thanks for you sharing ☺️
Thanks WC 😊
Should have shown the music and book store that sells Cd and brand new Teresa teng Lps.
Thanks for the feedback Lim 😊 Do you happen to have the name of the store or the address? I can remember it as a point of note and pass by it for future walks
The name is yin wueh shoo ju selling imported Teresa teng CDs And Lps from japan, the only few Cd shops left in singapore.
Aku suka nonton video kamu...untuk menghilangkan rasa capek ....tempat yang sangat bagus untuk di kunjungi
Happy to know the video brought you some comfort 😊 Hope things are well for you over in Indonesia. Stay safe and healthy
More details when you're walking Alan....👍👍
What more details would you like me to focus on? 😊
Can you include on your walks your recommended food spots that you have eaten at in your description? Massive foodie here 😋
Haha. That would be quite challenging. I enjoy a good meal here and there but I am not exactly a foodie that knows where the good place are.

@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV thank you. I'll be sure to check him out.
Thanks for sharing ，nice video.

Rindu sekali pingin ke singapore. Semoga covid segera berlalu
Hang in there! Just another year or less before we can all safely travel again 😊
Awesome walkthrough that 👍
Alan, which is your favourite place in Singapore for making walking videos?
I tend to enjoy walking in the Bugis area 😊just feel there are many things to see and do in this district
I want go to there, Albert Centre♥️
For the food? 😋
Awesome 😀
oh the crystal shop is nice
Have you visited that shop before?
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Ive been to a crystal shop but not that one in particular :)
@@hvrfios Haha. I didn't even realise there was a crystal shop in the video till you mentioned it 😄
I miss singapore. It's been 2 years i can't go to singapore.
Hang in there! Another 1 more year and we all will be able to travel to each others countries 😊
love your walks! just really curious about your routes haha is it planned, or just anyhow? either way it's always awesome!!
Generally the start is planned, then I let the scene take me to where it wants me to go 😊
I'm developing a very very long list of places to visit in Singapore when I go, hopefully soon. Of our governments can finish their negotiations, might be this year, fingers crossed
Cross fingers it will happen sooner rather than later🤞😁
