Singapore Nightlife Asia's only legal red-light district

Since Singaporeans do not like to cook at home, the country's catering industry has developed and prospered. According to a newspaper survey, 70% of Singaporeans eat three meals a day outside. There are countless famous snacks in Geylang, and there are many hot pot restaurants opened by new Chinese immigrants. After nightfall, expensive cars can be seen everywhere, and rich people often come here to feast. I have been to Singapore so many times, and this is my first time to set foot in Geylang. After a tour, I found that this place can be called a small China. There are restaurants from various provinces and cities on both sides of the road, from Xinjiang, Sichuan, Chongqing, Shanghai and Fuzhou.



Of course, there are many Chinese from various provinces making a living, including sex workers, both legal and illegal. Of course, there are also many sex workers from Indonesia, Thailand and other countries. Geylang is a very strange place. It is a place where people show their desires. As soon as you come here, you have the desire to see people or be seen by others. Everyone can express their desires boldly. When you come here, you look at the window girls in the house or the sex workers standing on the street, and at the same time you feel like an animal in the zoo being seen by passers-by. Who is looking at whom?



Incredibly, Geylang is also a religious jungle, with temples of Christianity, Catholicism, Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, etc. Geylang can be said to be a place where there is a temple every five steps and a temple every ten steps. Someone once said: "In Geylang, you can often see Taoist priests and sex workers passing by, and the strange sight of men seeking pleasure and prostitutes bargaining at the foot of the Buddha statue or next to the mosque. Brothels and yellow temples complement each other, and only Geylang is as interesting as this. This is a place full of market atmosphere and vitality."



Looking up the information, it was found that Geylang was once the place where the Chinese art master Xu Beihong lived and created paintings. The lampposts on Geylang Street 29 actually posted posters of naked women, with many unsightly photos of naked women and their mobile phone numbers.
