More Christmas pictures taken from Orchard road, the most beautifully decorated shopping area in Singapore during the festive season 2008. This is the second part of the series following Christmas Spectacular.
It’s a rotating Christmas tree outside Wheelock place, a rendezvous for the fashionable and trendy in Orchard Road.
The theme for Christmas 2008 in Singapore revolves around the Sweet Family in the tropics. There are colourful lollipops, cupcake-houses, ribbons, sweets and of course, cute members of the Sweet Family.
Merry Christmas from the Sweets! And from Travelerfolio! ^^ And from funny blog IeatMushroom!
The whole stretch of Orchard road is beautifully lighted up with colourful Christmas decorations.
The traffic is heavy…
and look at the crowd! There are soooo many people!
We have entered into a cartoon world. I want to eat cupcakes!
So many people around taking pictures. It’s so hard to walk any closer and take a pic without anyone standing in front of the Christmas setting.
The above pictures were snapped outside Ngee Ann City shopping centre.
I still have more X’mas photos in the pipeline. Stay tuned ok!
Wah? Now not yet Christmas already so busy?
The sponsors must have spent lots on the big big dolls ya? And all the nice lightings also!
I wana go to Orchard Rd!!!!!!!
@Lz: Yeah, people busily shopping for X’mas gifts and there are many tourists around too. Many people are there to take pictures.
Somehow, I think this year Christmas lights are nicer than last year. Or maybe last year I didn’t take note cos I had not started blogging yet. XD
It’s beautiful and happening in Orchard Road. Usually when they will tear down these decorations? Hope It can remain there until 2nd January 2009
Here we had a X’mas tree contest which i will post tomorrow. Check it out tomorrow and pick the tree of your choice.
@Borneo Falcon: Hmm, I don’t know how long they will keep those decorations. OK! Will check out your Xmas post.
I love the Xmas deco in Singapore. However, gonna missed them this year. Cannot travel there with my small baby!
Christmas is everywhere! Those huge decorations makes you feel how big the occasion is and the colors shows how colorful life can be.
you got a lot of lavish Xmas decorations there in Singapore Eunice….must be really fun going out at night~~~~
that’s very nice eunice!
wow!! wen did u visit thr n took all these pics? so crowded
Great pictures, Eunice. I love Christmas decorations. Does it snow in Singapore? I grew up in Michigan, where it snows plenty. A white Christmas is beautiful, it reminds me of the old Currier & Ives pictures of nineteenth century America, which are often seen on Christmas cards.
But even without snow, anyplace looks great with joyful Christmas decorations.
Merry Christmas!
Ho Hoo it’s so decorative! Oh yeah eunice, I’m going to singapore tomorrow, just hoping that i’m able to recognize you in real life nehh!!! Singapore so cute yet small, we might bumped to each other! ^^
