Orchard Road, Commercial street in Central Area, Singapore
Orchard Road extends for 2.5 kilometers through Singapore's center, featuring international retail stores, dining establishments, and entertainment venues along its length.
The street received its name from the nutmeg plantations and fruit orchards that occupied the surrounding land during the nineteenth century.
The thoroughfare transforms into a festive destination each December with lights, decorations, and street celebrations that bring together residents and visitors.
Multiple Mass Rapid Transit stations, including Orchard, Somerset, and Dhoby Ghaut, provide direct access to different sections of the street.
The area implemented a complete smoking restriction in 2018, establishing specific designated zones for smokers throughout the commercial district.
