Bugis Water Fountain - where kids always get themselves wet.

It has been more than a year since I came to Bugis Junction. I was here on yesterday and I noticed that whenever I am here, there are always kids getting themselves wet playing with water!




The parents of these kids actually encourage them to play with the water! They all come with an extra set or two of clothing!

Tan Kim Seng Fountain

This fountain that was built to commemorate Tan Kim Seng's contribution towards Singapore's first public waterworks.



One of the old plaques that has some description.



The National Heritage Board's version.



I think it's easiest to read from Wikipedia. That saves typing in all the description. :-)

Tan Kim Seng also has a road named after him, Kim Seng Road, which is where a popular shopping mall, Great World City is located.

Fountain at Raffles City Shopping Centre

This was taken yesterday. Hmmm This water feature has been there for so so long, we treat it that it has got to be there and never took any photos of it.

Then realise that people that look like tourist are taking photo of it. OK, why not I take one as well? So here it is. haha.




Are you one of those that will stand and look at the water come out with different combinations, and stand there for like over 10 minutes till the whole thing is over? I am one of those! haha..
