- Singapore Choa Chu Kang Walking Tour (2019) is a video recording of my walk with no talking. I highly recommend using headphones to experience 3D environment sounds as I recorded with binaural microphones.

Choa Chu Kang Info:
Choa Chu Kang (Chinese: 蔡厝港, Tamil: சுவா சூ காங்), alternatively spelled as Chua Chu Kang and often abbreviated as CCK, is a planning area and residential town located at the north-westernmost point of the West Region of Singapore. The town shares borders with Sungei Kadut to the north, Tengah to the southwest, Bukit Batok to the southeast, Bukit Panjang to the east and the Western Water Catchment to the west. Choa Chu Kang New Town is separated into two portions by the Kranji Expressway.
Originally a kampung, the area has been rapidly developed under the ambition of the Housing and Development Board, to transform it into a modern township. The town comprises seven subzones, four of which are the most densely populated: Choa Chu Kang Central, Choa Chu Kang North, Yew Tee and Teck Whye.
Choa Chu Kang's name is derived from its historical core at the former site of Chua Chu Kang Village located near the junction of Choa Chu Kang Road and Jalan Sungei Poyan, currently occupied by the grounds of the National Shooting Centre which comes under the purview of Singapore Shooting Association. The name began to be applied to the general area around the village when Choa Chu Kang Road, a main arterial road linking the village to Upper Bukit Timah Road towards the east was built.
The name "Choa Chu Kang" is derived from the Teochew word "kang chu". In the nineteenth century, Chinese immigrants to plant gambier and pepper along the river banks of Choa Chu Kang, although many migrated to Johor to the north at the encouragement of the Temenggong of Johor. The plantation owners were known as Kangchu - the word "kang" refers to the riverbank and "chu" means "owner" or "master", referring to the headman in charge of the plantations in the area. "Choa" is the clan name of the first headman.

Hi fellow Discoverers. This is Alan from Discovery Walking Tours TV. Do subscribe and ring the bell if you are keen to see more of Singapore. I used binaural microphones to record the environmental sounds. So if you have a pair of headphones, do use them, it will be quite an immersive experience 😀
If you notice any interesting points in the video or want to ask about something that was caught on camera, comment with a time stamp (eg 00:01) and I will be sure to check it out. I am also interested to know where you are from 😄 so drop a comment below and say hi!

I used to live 20 years ago. So much has changed. Love to visit Singapore 🇸🇬
I lived in here for 2 years in 2015~2017. There was very calm and convenient and comfortable. Most of all, the basement shopping center that shown in this video was my favorite place. I want to go here again.
Glad to hear from you John and thankful for sharing your fond memories of Choa Chu Kang 😊
I love the HDB walking.... Truly misses those. Thank you.
Yeah. It's nice to see that there are various types and configurations built throughout the island 😄
Thanks for another great piece of documentation about Singapore.
😄 Every single location counts
thanks for showing another part of Singapore 🇸🇬 🙏🏻👍🏻
Trying my best to give the west side of Singapore some recorded walks 😆
Interesting walk thanks Alan 🙂
These sort of videos rock!
Thanks 😁
Thanks for showing this nice country.
Happy to share 😄 I am just thankful there are people who are keen to see the everyday side of Singapore. It's nice to know there is interest in this.
Looks so peaceful and quiet for such a mall, thanks for sharing with us
Glad to hear from you. Hey you changed your channel name 😆 Was wondering why some of your videos look familiar. I think its the timing when I took the video. Probably most of the people were at home or at some other location. It gets really packed and crowded closer to evenings (in my experience)
7th is fine Brown
clean and clear , love Singapore.. thanks for sharing. 😊👍👍
Thanks Momanjo for dropping by 😄
I miss you choa chu kang 😘
I miss u Singapore
Love your vids. Please feature Sengkang .
Thanks Noel 😄 I will. Its on my list. Will cover all the major residential areas in Singapore in due time
Hi Bro,
CCK, was once an Estate with lots of complaint from residents regarding "Foul Odor" from Farms at Sg Tengah Agrotechnology Park! Some were from Teck Whye and Keat Hong too!
Looked like things have changed for the better!
Thank you for sharing this video......a recollection of past memories !
Haha Teck Whye is like a blast from the past. My aunt stays there and I remember having to travel there by bus a long time ago (no CCK mrt at that time). Never did remember the smells but lots of changes are planned for the area with the Jurong Regional Line coming up. I believe they are going to demolish the multi-storey carpark to make way for the new station
Nice! Lots of options for lunch there I see.
Glad to hear from you 4k. Haha. Thanks for the insight. I think to a Singaporean, the food choices are not enough 🤣
Hi Alan, I know you already featured Bedok un the Past, can you do another walking tour on Bedok south, where the blk 16 Market/hawker area. a lot of memories there. I never missed on your videos! very relaxing content.
Happy to hear from you Salvador and thanks for sharing your thoughts. Sounds familiar. Isn't block 16 very near Tampines Junior College? Yup I can probably squeeze a filming one of these weekends. Please do be patient I got a whole backlog of videos but I promise to do a walk in the area soonest 😆
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV I can wait no matter how long, hehe, Its the blk 16 hawker near bedok south road where the popular hill street Char kway teow located. I hope i can start my walking tour channel too soon.
Haha. Sadly I haven't been in Bedok South for the longest time. For food I would usually head up to Bedok 85. This sounds like a good opportunity to visit Bedok South =) Best wishes on your walking channel
How About Doing In Pasir Ris, Expo And Changi Beach Next?
Pasir Ris and Expo are on the list but will take awhile to appear 😄 As for changi beach, a part of it is covered in the last portion of this walk
