Singapore Festival captures the imagination, taste buds of revellers

Although the very first weekend of December was packed with weekend bazaars, the third edition of the Singapore Festival held at Bogalayzay Street from November 30 to December 2 turned out to be a major hit, not only among foreign visitors but also fun-loving Yangonites.

The Singapore Festival shut down Bogalayzay Street (between Merchant Road and Maharbandoola Road) for three days and for a fleeting moment became transformed into a cultural lane divided into four themed zones dubbed: culture, explorer, socialisers and of course foodies zones, that showcased not only the culture of Singapore but of Myanmar as well.
