Explore Singapore's hidden gem known as "Book City

#bookstoresandgalleries Calling book lovers and culture enthusiasts!!! Bras Basah Complex, also known as "Book City," is a hidden gem in Singapore where a rich collection of bookstores and art shops await. This iconic complex, built in the 1980s, retains its original charm with a five-story layout filled with bookstores and shops. In its heyday, the complex was bustling with bookstores. Though the popularity of physical bookstores has waned over time, the complex has evolved to host a variety of literary and art shops, with the National Library just next door. It's a haven for culture enthusiasts, offering not just books but also art exhibitions, paintings, and more. If you’re on the hunt for Chinese books like I was, you'll find plenty of unique titles at great prices, especially second-hand ones. Highly recommended🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 1.
