Lorong Payah, Singapore

Lorong Payah, Singapore (30 July 2017)


Lorong Payah is a small lane in downtown Singapore. It connects Bencoolen Street to Waterloo Street, behind the Lazada One building. The lane separates Rochor from the Museum Planning Area. As the word "payah" is possibly an old spelling of paya, which means mangrove in Malay, I suppose that the area was swampy when that name was given to the lane. Today it is a relatively obscure lane.

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.
