Raffles Place MRT Station (GPS: 1.28389, 103.85142; EW14/NS26) is a major interchange station of the Singapore MRT system. It is located beneath the financial district of Raffles Place, which is in the Downtown Core of Singapore. The North-South Line and East-West Line pass through here.

When it opened on 12 December, 1987, the Raffles Place MRT Station was the biggest subway station in Singapore. It has since dropped to third place behind the Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station and Bras Basah MRT Station.

The Raffles Place MRT Station is linked to Raffles Xchange, a subterranean mall, located at Basement 1. Raffles Xchange provides seamless link from the MRT station to the surrounding buildings such as Hitachi Tower, Republic Plaza, Chevron House and UOB Plaza. Other buildings in the vicinity include the Bank of China Building. Among the shopping malls nearby include Far East Square.

About this website



Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
