Kim Seng Road

Kim Seng Road (Chinese: 金声路) is a street in Singapore that runs along the upper-easternmost portion of the Bukit Merah-Central Area border.

The burnt-out, rundown shacks were replaced by modern flats and people were rehoused in what became Bukit Ho Swee and Kim Seng Housing Estates.

The newly established Housing and Development Board ensured that the estate was self-sufficient, incorporating schools, business and social amenities in its design.

The boundaries of Kim Seng Constituency have shifted over the years, due to population and re-zoning changes.

Located next to the Singapore River, it is not uncommon to see tourists strolling along the pavements of the Kim Seng Road.

As it is of close proximity to the chillout bars at colonial houses located in Tiong Bahru and the Great World, visitors can also experience a taste of Singapore's heritage at those century-old temples.
