- Welcome to Jurong East, a planning area and residential town located in the West Region of Singapore. My viewers always told me to come here and finally, I am here for the first time. I brought my passport just in case. What's Jurong like? Will I use my passport? Join me as I explore this town.

#Singapore #Jurong #JurongEast
Welcome to Jurong. Since you bought your passport along. You need to be on 14 days SHN. 😙
You have missed out on IMM, Science centre, Snow city, Jurong lake gardens, Jurong Bird Park and new upcoming onsen soon in Jurong. We have discovery centre and NTU (university) with nice modern architectural buildings.
@@schadenfreude6274 lol. Must be an eastie. Obv they don't know la. They also don't live in jurong. Lol.
I know you have difficulty filming in malls, but there's an ice skating rink at Jcube Level 3. For night Hawker Centre, best would be Boon Lay Village known for Boon Lay Power Nasi Lemak that opens till 3-4am before covid, not sure about now. There's also morning/day hawker centres like Taman Jurong Hawker Centre, Yuhua Place, Yuhua Village (Yuhua Place is opposite Chinese Garden MRT, Yuhua Village is the one you went to. They are 2 different hawker centres), Jurong West 505 Hawker Centre, Jurong West Blk 492 area has many many coffeeshops and Takagi Ramen known Singaporeans to be cheap and good and opened by Ai Takagi and her Singaporean husband. They also have outlets in Chong Pang, AMK, Downtown East, Woodlands and one-north.
Interesting that no one suggested the Singapore Science Centre or the Snow City!
Yes. Science centre and Snow city. If feeling abit adventurous, can go to discovery centre or even to Pulau NTU .
Chevrons also.
@@LittlePanda888 Let's be honest, there's really nothing much to do in Singapore. Malaysia will be more fun to visit.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 That is going off topic. If go overseas, might as well go Thailand, Japan or Korea. Not to mention now going overseas is out of the question.
@@LittlePanda888 Malaysia is nearest to Singapore. But on the other hand, Malaysia borders Thailand, Singapore, Brunei and Indonesia.
Ahhh Jurong used to be my playground. Surprisingly no one remembered Science Centre and Snow City lol! Ice Skating ring in JCube is a good time killer. You watch people go round and round lol! Not sure if ice skating ring is open during these times though.
Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle came to my mind when you say you are looking for something cultural. It has the last surviving Dragon Klin in Singapore. But I think it is kind of out of the way from the MRT and kind of tricky finding it.
Visiting Jurong East isn’t really complete without visiting JEM & IMM.. 😅
1. Take MRT all the way to Tuas Link MRT Station and see Tuas view bird eye view from Jurong EAst to Tuas. There is Raffles Marina open to public.
2. LAKESIDE MRT STn. walked about 15min to the new Jurong Lake Gardens.
3. hungry take mrt to CHINESE Garden MRT STn opposite Joo Siah Bak Koot Teh
4. The Singapore Mint - Gallery of history of notes and coins - nearby can see the pandan reservoir.
Go to Science Centre, our favorite school outing place when we were young. Can also go to Nanyang Technological University where they have the Yunnan Garden and a Chinese Heritage Center (but might be closed, check first).
Yes I wanted to but it was unfortunately closed! Some day can lah👍
Back then Jurong East used to be very plain before Westgate, Jem and Jcube came about. Jurong East has become my common haunt when it comes to shopping and eating for almost 7 years now.
You can explore Jurong Lake Garden. Take MRT to Lakeside Station. Just 3 minutes walk from the station.
The drink stall which you bought your coffee from at Yuhua Hawker Centre, hands down one of the cheapest drink stall I am aware of. Hot drinks like tea and coffee that easily cost $1.10 to $1.30 elsewhere just cost 80 to 90 cents there. The stall owner also opens during the 1st 2 days of Chinese New Year (during which most hawkers will take a rest and close shop), and maintains the same price on their drink for that 2 days (when other stalls that choose to open will easily add a surcharge of 50 cents to $1 for their food)!
yes this stall is where my family patronize daily. very affordable and good. the lady boss's husband makes the coffee, he is Thai~ but coffee very authentically SG. :)
@@candystyle Wow, hidden jewel in SG
Come back and explore Jurong again, explore Taman Jurong locale next time, alight at Lakeside MRT take a stroll or cycle along the renovated Jurong Lake Garden
- Stopover at Taman Jurong Market & Food Centre for lunch, I recommend ButterNut for their smoked duck thin crust pizza. Its rare to get such good Western fusion food in the west.
- Probably take photos around block 63 to 66 Yung Kuang Road aka Diamond Block, its a local iconic building.
- You can go continue further end of Yuan Ching Road to Jurong SuperBowl, I used to bowling with my friends there. I personally resonates the place to Johor, because of the open-air carpark and supermarket.
Their paella rice isn’t great tho. Soggy, generic and bland.
as someone in Jurong... WELCOME!!!
Maybe you can collab with him!! Tour around west
僕の初めての海外旅行はジュロンバードパークに行くためにジュロンイーストのホテルに泊まりました。
モールがたくさんあって楽しかったし、もっと注目されても良いんじゃないかなーって思いますね！
でも、初めての海外旅行にしては観光地でもないし、難易度高いことしてたんだなーって思いました 笑
とても懐かしいです！
Genting hotel is the only hotel in Jurong. You are welcome to visit Singapore again!
Haha you could have visited Lakeside gardens since you were at Chinese Garden (it's pretty close)
Chinese Garden is Closed for renovation all route to that direction is closed .
Lakeside is just around that corner! I can't believe you wasted your video/visit to Jurong without being more informed better, total WASTE and injustice done to Jurong!
Should have went to Jurong Lake Garden! Huge area to explore and the sunset is beautiful there
You should go "raffles marina" there's a nice light house where u can enjoy the view of Tuas Bridge connecting to Malaysia. There is a nice light house there too
Bruh dude literally bring a passport lmao 🤣
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA I LOVE HOW HE TREATS JURONG LIKE EVERY EAST-SIDER
So far when i buy Gindaco Takoyaki it’s always freshly made & really hot inside …have to let it cool down.. Probably if you go during lunch or dinner time it would be freshly made.
Yeah I burnt my tongue when I had it 2 months ago.
I second that. Normally I would eat on the spot. Tabao not nice already.
I live in Tiong Bahru. Not only is Jurong ulu to me (for the West, anything beyond Clementi is ULU), but places beyond Bedok in the East including Tampines, Pasir Ris and Changi are also ULU. Places in the North beyond Serangoon including Sengkang, Punggol, Yishun, Sembawang and Woodlands are also ULU. I simply can't imagine myself living in ANY of those places in Singapore.
子供連れてサイエンスセンターへ行くのにこのあたりへいったなぁ。懐かしい。
確かにローカルの人しかいなかった。
You need to go further west to 505 Jurong West Market with nice Fish Soup with explosive Chili sauce, chicken porridge, Taman Jurong Market with famous BCM & Lor Mee and historical Boon Lay Food Market with many traditional local food.
you should have went to jurong lake garden
Should have gone
Yunnan Garden @ NTU is quite interesting if you are into chinese looking building. The Hive NTU which looks like "dimsum tower" :D There is also pottery place called Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle where u can make your own master piece. Its not your "usual" looking studio as this has a more "kampong" feel to it. Have fun exploring Jurong!
Welcome to the West! ☺️
You should explore Jurong West and Boon Lay too! Lots of hidden gems at the wet market, Kim Lotus Dessert, Suzuki Gourmet Coffee, Jurong Lake Gardens etc.
The porridge stall beside the drink stall you went is one of my favourites from young. From $3 you can get various porridge, its very affordable. The Kung Pow frog leg is great comfort food too :D
I love Jurong, I no longer need to go orchard for shopping. It has a good mix of big malls among coffee shops and hawker Centres. There is jurong lake, Chinese and Japanese garden
Hoping for a shake shack & ramen nagi outlet in the west…waiting to see what takes over miam miam and zaffron location at Westgate
The whole jurong lake gardens you should visit.
Jurong Hill
Further down to Raffles Marina at Tuas
Jurong Bird Park (before they move to Mandai)
Singapore Science Centre
Snowcity
Discovery Centre
NTU
West Coast Parkway
Dover forest
Sunset Way / Ulu Pandan park connector
Railway corridor
Food:
Yuhua Village
Those food centres besides Jcube
West Coast food centre
Ayer Rajah Food Centre
You should also visit Jurong Hill, there are many trees at the peak, planted by diplomats.
i was waiting Uncle Jimmy appear somewhere in the video to guide you around the Jurong ... lolx
20年ほど前に隣町？のクレメンティに住んでいたけど、街の様子からバスまでとても変わっていて驚き😲幼稚園生だった自分は親にジュロンバードパークに連れて行ってもらって、物凄く楽しんだ覚えがあります！
Actually there are many Japanese who stays in Jurong East and Clementi as the Waseda school is nearby and many Japan shops in the west. Jurong East itself has 2 Donki. Niigata Albirex also trains at the stadium there.
Oh, you missed Jurong Lake Gardens further down. Even though it doesn't have the iconic structures of Chinese & Japanese Gardens, it still holds it's weight in terms of landscaping. It is pretty & big, I spent about 4 hours exploring the place. There are dog run park, playgrounds, eatery, instagrammable lalang fields with small hills, swimming pool, gym, man-made beach, community gardens, the famous lone "tree", and recently they just added Singapore's largest wetlands park. All within Jurong Lake Gardens.
As a nature lover, and even though it's man-made, I would go as far to say that Jurong Lake Gardens is the jewel of Jurong.
Wait you telling me there was a man made beach. How the hell I didn't hear about. I been there quite a few times
Hi Ghib how are you today and I am Zack from Malaysia and nice video today
ジュロン行くのはパスポート要るってよく冗談言うてました笑
NTUというjurongにある大学で留学をしていた者です！
Boon Lay (文礼)と言う駅直結のJurong PointというモールのB1に、日本のレストランが集まっているところ(大阪をイメージして、カニ道楽のミニ版がありました🦀)オススメです！
日本庭園しまってて残念でしたね😢 もうすぐ建国記念日ですね！🌟
また次回のJurongのビデオ楽しみにしてます！🇸🇬
Bring passport for what?u need it to enter Chinese Garden??lol Later u lost it..then how??
WEST is not that far that u need a passport leh...😅😁🤔😎
Aww mian you should have gone to jurong lake gardens when you were at Chinese Garden!!
I’ve been living in jurong all my life and 10:59 is yes 👍
Go science centre at jurong. It's very fun. Jurong east also has the king of fried rice.
All the old hdb commercial shops are the same. The malls beside the mrt station also the same . That's why no one can recommend u where to go when u ask the people there, it's just the same as any other estate.
I lived in Jurong all my life, its a great place. We have 5 shopping malls in Jurong East. Well 4 now, Big Box closed down. lol
If the HSR link to Malaysia was confirmed then u may need to use your passport in the future when it is fully completed..and the vibe here at jurong east will be different...sad to say this project was abolished last year or so.😥.
Really had so much fun watching your video! Happy that you shared it!
I had no idea that Singapore had this kinda neighbourhood. Love seeing the more local areas like this!
Jurong got 2 Daiso and 2 DonDonDonki!
Zai shun curry fish head stall....must try since u already come to ulu place..don't miss this michelin recommended stall
Jurong/Clementi/West Coast has a large population of Japanese staying there due to the proximity to the Japanese School. Even Albirex Niigata is there!
😂 Can go Lakeside Garden, after which go Jurong Point(Boon Lay MRT Station)
🤔 Jcube u didn't go check the to ice skating area? 😅
The government wanted to make Jurong East to be another CBD. As for the history of Jurong (and Tuas), u should look it up...how they transformed the area from the 60s to now. Brought along your Passport to Jurong? That's adorable.
Hey Ghib you can consider visiting Jurong Bird Park and Jurong Hill Park. In the 1960s-1980s, important foreign visitors would visit Jurong Hill Park to plant trees and look at the Jurong Industrial Estate. You can catch a view of Jurong Island atop the hill too.
Other suggestions would include Yun Nan Garden at NTU, Jurong Lake Gardens (access from Lakeside), and Jurong West 505 Market and Food Center
Come to Bukit Panjang next!
I am a proud native of Jurong, I was born here and lived here for 34 years already. What you see is only a small part of Jurong! Jurong is a huge area! Contact me and I can give you a free tour!
I like that.. follow the crowd, may find some good food but.. eventually leads you to the toilet haha😆
Ojisan, if you are interested, I would like to bring you around the West side!
Jurong Point !
FOR FOOD, JURONG WEST 505, Zai shun fish head , boon lay hawker and taman jurong hawker. Drop by jurong park Macs , science centre , warehouse club ,discovery centre 👌
Pls come to jurong point , it’s a very popular area
Explore Boon Lay Place with residential built since 1974, there is a Boon Lay Hawker Center and a Neighbourhood Boon Lay Shopping Center. Boon Lay Hawker serves many delicious Asian food including popular Satays , Penang Hokkien Prawn Noodles , Ma Bo Lor Mee ( Braised Noodles) , Power Nasi Lemak ( with a long queue always ) …
Shopping Center has quite a few money changer . This is a place to take a coach to go to Malaysia . There is shop selling workers’ clothes and safety shoes, and many varieties .
私も同じ目に会いました。そこから一駅先のレイクサイドまで行って数分ほど歩けばジュロンレイク周辺を散歩することができますよ。広々していて2時間くらいかかるでしょうか。動画ネタにするにはいい場所かと思います。一度行かれてみてください。
Next trip, try visit Jurong Point shopping mall next to Boon Lay MRT station. There is a stretch of Japanese food street stalls (modelling part of Osaka Dotonbori) located at the basement 1 level, link between old wing & new wing of the shopping mall.
At level 2 of new wing section, next to NTUC Extra is the HK food street section with the HK neon light signboard decoration, it’s organised by HK Tourism Board.
Then, at the far end side of the new wing, there is another corner called “Malaysia Boleh” featuring the street food stalls in Malaysia, organised by Malaysia Tourism Board.
Ghib, not sure if you are aware but there's always a joke going on on which side of Singapore is the best to live in. West vs East haha.
You should have visited Science Centre! It’s amazing! My friend’s father used to be the head of the SC and we visited there at least once a week when I was a kid. Never get bored.
My secondary school (Singapore Japanese School) used to be in Jurong, but I heard it moved to Changi. I wonder what was built there. The shopping mall that you visited this time? The place has changed a lot! Would like to visit there when the travel restriction is lifted.😃
Ahahaha fuck. Who told this foreigner that he needs a passport to go to Jurong???!?! U better own up now!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
銀だこは大阪人がたこ焼きと認めないらしい、「タコ揚げだ、値段が高い」など、たしかに冷めた銀だこは不味い…中国、日本庭園は20年ぐらい前に行き今どうなっているか気になってたけど改装中ですか。
I always go to jurong for 2 food places
-Hua Xing Bah Kut Teh in the AM
347 Jurong East Ave 1, #01-171, Singapore 600347
-Zai Shun Curry fish head (i order dishes like sharks head, soup and steamed fish at this zichar stall)
253 Jurong East St 24, #01-205, Singapore 600253
someone mentioned jurong bird park, from there go up jurong hill park. got a pretty night view. but u gotta drive up there though.
you can do few videos for jurong east, jurong west, boon lay (jurong point), old boon lay place (market and food centre), pioneer.
NTU - Nanyang lake, Yunnan Gardens , the hostels, so many to walk.
i'm sure we have so many fans here waiting to bring u to all the different places in jurong. :)
Jurong Hill Park, a.k.a old JTC summit beside Jurong Bird Park - you can find trees planted by many overseas VVIP in the 1970s, but, you need good stamina to climb to the top though, where you can have a good view of the whole Jurong estate 😊
Can explore Jurong Lake Gardens that's further down towards lakeside mrt. it's much further down from Chinese Garden, but it's really huge!!
Also Taman Jurong Hawker Centre area has great food at night.
The malls are great. with IKEA, Don don donki at Jcube & JEM, IMM is full of outlet malls of different brands and items are a lot cheaper. there's a good HK style restaurant at IMM too
Old mrt line station toilets are usually...not that clean.Is similar to the old Ueno and Asakusa stns toilet..lol..However,the one you just visited is a bit smell and wet slippery floor..😅😅
the mall's toilet would be a better choice.
There is a tsukada nojo in plaza singapura and china town both qualify as city center
The passport is such an old joke....
It is Singapore and places are within reach...
Jurong is a sweet place with cheap food and convenience......
Did you go to Yuhua Market & Hawker Centre? Free Covid-19 testing will be extended to anyone who visited Yuhua Market and Hawker Centre in Jurong East between July 21 and Wednesday.
Hi ! You missed the best Fei Fei Char Siew Noodle in Yuhua market. There are also a number of other good food here which you didn't get to try, e.g. best Roti Prata near (Parc Oasis and Lor Mee in Taman Jurong). I am happy to be your guide when you make a trip here again!
The Singapore flags outside the HDB flats such as those you saw at Yuhua Village are put up by TC. There are few Singaporeans who put out flags nowadays.
You should also visit Jurong Town Hall! This building is a National Monument! It is build in ‘Brutalist Style’. There is a history behind it.
I find the Japanese fine dining is very amazing, really considered an art. May be you can dedicate an episode on it.
it's a pagoda, a temple is a place of worship. that structure is not religious.
Hi, you have only been to Jurong East which is nearer to the city.
Jurong stretches beyond to Boon Lay, Jurong West and beyond - that is when it gets ulu and industrial with many factories and less HDB settings.
Jurong east is ok. I love it because the library is there. But sigh, due to covid, you knwo what, stayed home most of the time. Only go out to get food or visit ntuc or giant store. hahaha. Sigh.......
Don't you stay in jurong? I rmb one video your grabfood nearby mall is jem. Lol
Actually there is a branch of the 925 chicken rice near the MRT station. The porridge, carrot cake at the hawker center is good. There is another western food near the tiong bahru bao at the yuhua market. At the chinese garden MRT there is a Joo Siah Bak Kut teh which is nice
LOL why did you bring your passport Ghib? Made me think you were going to Jurong Island xD
Damnnn, your passport looks wrecked😂😂
U should proceed to Jurong point. U will find mini HK there
ULU your head lah! Punggol Sengkang is ULU … those are new towns. Jurong is old town. Very old.
jurong is big. u shld go see jurong lake gardens. cycling also can. think u only covered jurong east, there is also jurong west, boon lay, ntu, etc etc
Jurong is huge and is a combination of Jurong East and Jurong West. You've only been to some parts of Jurong East, and at the wrong timing and period. The main gardens are closed and only the new west side of the garden is opened. And you're probably went to the market in the late afternoon hence most stalls are usually closed by then.
There's the first and only Olympic-sized ice-skating rink at JCube, as it's told. A science centre, a snow centre nearby and of course the garden attractions. So if JE is ulu, many other parts of Singapore are very very ulu lol...
I live in Tiong Bahru. Not only is Jurong ulu to me (for the West, anything beyond Clementi is ULU), but places beyond Bedok in the East including Tampines, Pasir Ris and Changi are also ULU. Places in the North beyond Serangoon including Sengkang, Punggol, Yishun, Sembawang and Woodlands are also ULU. I simply can't imagine myself living in ANY of those places in Singapore.
@@Pr3ppie what u see is the current state of Tiong Bahru after its gentrification. Have u been living there before 2000s? Most people won't like it because of the rats and old vibes it exudes...
Jurong East Swimming Complex is a good place to visit. It’s a public pool with cool slides
I'm a little late but I work in the don don donki foodcourt in Jcube and I saw you filming that day!! It was nice to see you in person
Why Jollibee?! Hahaha! This replied make my day 🤣🤣🤣
Ojisan, currently is Phase 2, no eating but yet you able to sit down there and eat ? OMG, why must you bring a Passport ? It's still in Singapore not another country .
He's cute🥰 bring passport to Jurong..
U should hav gone ice skating in Jcube 🤫 why people ask u bring passport wan take CW bus to JB ah? 🤭
Next time visit jurong west!! For the Joya onsen cafe next time when they open! I cant wait to see your review for it
You can consider visiting Taman Jurong. Lots of delicious food.
WTK
Lol... bring a passport cos its far. I recall once a white dude wound down his car window to our car and to ask directions in Bukit Timah. He asked how to get back to Singapore... Funny. Singapore is small, but not that small....
Actually i think Jurong Point's Japan street in the basement might be what the friends were eluding to. That is at Boon Lay station.
" Anything interesting to do in Jurong? "
Me: No. Unless you count ice skating and food.
U shld go visit the Singapore Science Centre and the snow city. Its at Jurong East too!
