Orchard Road

 

Orchard Road

Orchard Road is the primary shopping street of Singapore. It is a one-way street going southeast, and starts just before its intersection with Scotts Road (the location of Orchard MRT Station), past Bideford Road, Somerset MRT Station, Central Expressway, Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station, and ends at the intersection with Handy Road (just before Prinsep Road), where it becomes Bras Basah Road.

Orchard Road is flanked by a pedestrian mall, as well as several of the biggest shopping centres of Singapore, including (from west to east) The Forum Shopping Mall, Palais Renaissance, Wheelock Place, Shaw Centre, Wisma Atria, Ngee Ann City, The Paragon, Centrepoint Shopping Centre, and Plaza Singapura. Orchard Road also boasts numerous restaurants and cafes.
