Changing face of Chinatown,改变中的牛车水。

These are some of the oldies shophouses in Chinatown,the mooncake and bakgua shops.
There is a long queue outside the mooncake shop.
这是在牛车水的两间老店,卖月饼(大中国)和肉干(林志源)。
中秋节快到了,每年大中国都会见到人龙。

Did you find something special in this photo "mini coffin"?
你能不能在这照片里找到“升官发财”?


A "angmo"westerner open a sausage stall in Chinatown.
It was very outstanding and famous in Chinatown.
这间店在牛车水很特别和很有名。
洋人在牛车水卖香肠,很有意思的画面。


What did this shop do in middle of Chinatown ?
As Chinatown is a very traditional place.
为什么这间店会出现在牛车水这老街?



I think this is the changing world, anything can happen.
Even our life changes without our notice.
我想是世界都在变。
我们的生活无意间也在改变中。

You're right, Chinatown has changed so much as compared to last time, and I'm worried it'll lost its originality in future...

Anthony said...

Kat,

You are right, I also worried it will lost originality.

I more woriied that it will become the next red light location. It no good as the sex shop is getting more and more. from 1 to 3 shops.

As there are a lot of chinese ladies walking around there...
