Somerset Road is a major road in the Orchard shopping belt of Singapore. It runs in a single direction from east to west, beginning at the intersection with Killiney Road and Penang Road, and ending at the T-junction with Grange Road.

Somerset Road was named after William Somerset Maugham, the English novelist who spent time in the Malay peninsula, including some years in Singapore, in the 1930's. Located between Somerset Road and Orchard Road is the Somerset MRT Station (NS23) served by the North-South Line.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
