Wall is a small town in Pennington County, South Dakota. Covering just 2 sq mi (5.3 sq km), it has a population of around 800 only (2011 estimate). The town founded in 1908 has one rather unexpected tourist attraction: its local drug store. Wall Drug Store (or simply Wall Drug), founded in 1931 as a small pharmacy, has since grown into a shopping mall where visitors can buy everything under one roof. It also has a restaurant and gift shop, all under a single operator.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
