- Clementi Singapore Walking Tour (2019) is a video recording of my walk with no talking. I highly recommend using headphones to experience 3D environment sounds as I recorded with binaural microphones.

Clementi Singapore Info:
Clementi is a planning area and residential town located at the easternmost fringe of the West Region of Singapore. The town borders Bukit Batok to the north, Bukit Timah to the northeast, Queenstown to the east and Jurong East to the west.
The present area occupying Clementi Avenue 1 used to be known as 'Sussex Estate', named after the historic county of Sussex in England. It was developed in the mid-1950s to house the families of British senior non-commissioned officers. When Clementi underwent a major transformation beginning in 1975, Sussex Estate was the only pre-development feature that was retained. It was demolished in 1997.
Most of the area currently occupied by Clementi New Town today was once a military installation called 'Colombo Camp'. It is not known when the camp came into existence, however what is known is that the Singapore Guard Regiment, formed in 1948, stationed its troops there. When the regiment disbanded in November 1971, the camp was left to stand for another four more years before it was demolished in 1975.
Clementi New Town was subsequently developed between 1975 and 1979 on the plot of land that was once occupied by the camp. Planned as a self-sufficient residential town with a range of facilities and services, the Housing and Development Board (HDB) began clearing the area in 1974 and affected villagers were resettled.
An iconic landmark at Clementi is the steel truss railway bridge crossing Sungei Ulu Pandan. It was once part of the Jurong KTMB Railway Line which was constructed to facilitate the transportation of manufactured products from Jurong to Malaysia, and raw materials from Malaysia to the industrial estate at Jurong. Construction of the railway began in 1963, and the first train ran in 1966. The Jurong section of the railway remained in use for the next four decades until its closure in the early 1990s. Today, the disused track continues to attract much interest from the public, especially people with a taste for history, nature and photography.

Hi fellow Discoverers. This is Alan from Discovery Walking Tours TV. Happy to be back Singapore to do more filming. As always do use a pair of headphones for an immersive experience as I used binaural microphones to record the ambient sounds. If you notice any interesting points in the video, comment with a time stamp (eg 00:01) and I will be sure to check it out.
If you are keen to see more of Singapore, check out my playlist below:

I used to live in Clementi, very nice place. Thank you for the video, it brings a lot of sweet memories of Clementi and Singapore.
My hometown when I was younger 😊 miss the area
Thanks for showing wet market in Singapore. Interesting 👍🏻. I love Singaporean food 😊
Glad to show you the sights. Oh yeah. The food choices here still take my breath away. So many choices with varying degrees of spiciness.
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV 👍🏻😊
Hi Bro,
Thank you for sharing this wonderful video and the footage from the high rise block is stunning and beautiful.
@0:38....sits a cobbler named Paul. Highly recommended and his stitch-work is excellent!
Was scrutinizing the ppl at the Hawker Centre for some familiar faces but none. Whoa, the queue at the fried carrot stall, never ends! Hahaha!!!
Glad to see you here Boon Keng. Pretty awesome views at the top. Wonder what its like to live soo high up. Do you still go to Paul for your mending needs? Yeah the carrot cake stall is always packed. I always like to eat the curry chicken hotpot in the hawker centre.
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV
Hi Bro,
Thanks for your reply. Have not been home so, have not seen Paul since 2015! He is a nice man.
Chicken Curry Hotpot at the Hawker Centre ......must be new as I'm not aware of it. Thrre're a numbrr of good stalls like the porridge stall, wantan noodle, and the economic rice next to the Soya Bean Stall. They are very popular and long queue too during peak hours.
The high rise buildings around Clementi Central does make a difference after viewing your footage. Awesime and thanks again.
Take csre and warmest regards to you.
Thanks for these videos! Through the heartlands and cityscapes, I find these walking tours of yours rather heartwarming and relaxed mindset 😎❤
It's rather ironic I'm getting a closer and clearer look at my own neighbourhood from this walking tour clip lol
Lots of happy memories of wandering around Clementi and especially the wet market and hawker centre. I could almost taste the carrot cake! Made me homesick for Singapore, but I am looking forward to checking out your other videos.
not so happy any more lol

Thanks Simon 😊 I'm glad to have a chance to record Singapore's heritage 😁 will refocus back on Singapore in 2020 so if Singapore interests you, do stick around. More to come in the coming year
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV thank you... I will certainly be following you closely. Cheers
Welcome back to Singapore alan.and thanks for all the China videos.it seemsToast box are popular in Singapore
I love the structure and fountain at 7:22
Yeah Toast Box comes from Singapore and they serve what I would call a "typical" Singaporean breakfast: kaya toast, half boiled eggs with Nanyang Coffee.
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV thank you for the enlightenment and quick response
Thanks for posting! I used to live in Clementi about 6 years ago, this was my part of my walk to the train station. Good times :)
Yeah. Much has changed in the area since then. Which part of Singapore do you stay now? 😊
We all know the Success that is Singapore, but through your works of artistic technique and soulful strategy, that Success ascends into realm of awareness, and becomes clear all laymen to see with humble eyes. You have brought this country to masses, the ordinary folks of the world, and for that I must pray for continued Success and works of similar quality nature.
Thanks AN =) Always glad to see you here
Thanks Alan. Love the wet markets of Singapore; can always get what is not available in the supermarkets and the aerial view is beautiful 😀
Yup but it seems. Only the older estates have the wet markets. Don't recall seeing those in newer estates like Sengkang and Punggol 🤔
Great Singapore walking tour! Thank you for the share!
Thanks for dropping by SW =)
Thanks for this walk!
Thanks AW =D
Good weather for walking tour. Wow so many aquarium shops🙂👍. Here we have to travel long distance to look at fish. Thanks for sharing Alan. Keep well.
I used to live in clementi when I was younger. It's amazing how much have changed in the area. Lots of high rise residential housing flats now.
Thank you 😊
You're welcome 😊
Thanks Alan. Got my fix today.
I ate some delicious curry back in 1999, food was delicious and to be able to eat under open air was awesome. There was simply nothing like it, such a fun place for a variety of produce. ☺
Your comment makes me appreciate how fortunately we are to have a readily accessible outdoor food at our hawker centres 😊 Which parts of Singapore did you visit?
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Sentosa back when it was simply just the merlion that you could walk into, some eateries too. So long ago i can barely remember now. 😅
@@Andy1076 Ah yes. The large one. Yeah they decided to knock it down. Heard they want to create a pedestrian friendly connection from the north to the south part of Sentosa
At clementi there we ate the sate, mostly always so long q than if really want eat must be come early, than ya there always is famous of Chinese food is i dunno what is name but in site is alot of the fresh vegetables than the taste is can request one,is so fun went we order is very spicy one, cause very nice 😀😀😀😀😀😀
Maybe many local people can speak two or three kind of languages.Which language do you mostly use? For Chinese people,is that most Singapore young generation speak English not 华语?
I use English in my daily activities in Singapore. My second language is Mandarin and I use it sparingly. I think its not just the younger generation, even the older folks (seniors in their 60s) use English to communicate
Very good
Thanks Jomy 😊
😍👍

Thanks Peter 😁 hope you liked it
