Orchard Road is a one-way street. It starts just before its intersection with Scotts Road, which is the location of the Orchard Mass Rapid Transit Station. It then stretches southeast past Bideford Road, Somerset MRT Station, Central Expressway, Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station, and ends at the intersection with Handy Road (just before Prinsep Road), where it becomes Bras Basah Road. It has an extensive underground infrastructure, including underground pedestrian walkways between the malls running underneath the street and also other streets in the vicinity. Orchard Road is flanked by pedestrian malls. These include several underground malls, as well as some of the biggest shopping centres in Singapore, including (from west to east) Tangs, The Forum Shopping Mall, Palais Renaissance, Wheelock Place, Shaw Centre, Lucky Plaza (were my Filipino brothers and sisters hang out on weekends), Wisma Atria, Ngee Ann City (a Takashimaya branch), The Paragon, Centrepoint Shopping Centre, and Plaza Singapura. A retail complex under construction at the site named Orchard Turn has the distinction of also being a future residential area, and is planned to be completed by Christmas 2008. This place is good for shopping with a wide selections of goods from branded clothes to different electronic gadets. Orchard Road also contains numerous upmarket restaurants, coffee chains, cafes, nightclubs and hotels. It is also the site of the official residence of the President of Singapore, the Istana. Orchard road is one of the best place to spend Christmas in Asia because all the buildings in this road are ful of christmas decors, lights, full of colors, and very alive!
