Toa Payoh, Residential town in Central Region, Singapore
The area encompasses 8.17 square kilometers with residential complexes, commercial centers, and recreational facilities connected through an extensive transportation network.
Toa Payoh emerged in 1970 as Singapore's second satellite town, transforming from agricultural land and squatter settlements into a modern residential district.
The town center features multiple food courts and markets where residents gather to enjoy traditional Singaporean dishes and celebrate local festivals.
The Toa Payoh MRT station serves as a central transportation hub, connecting residents to other parts of Singapore through multiple bus routes and rail lines.
Local residents maintain a community garden near the Sensory Park, growing tropical fruits and vegetables while teaching cultivation methods to younger generations.
