Tanglin (Simplified Chinese: 东陵, Traditional Chinese: 東陵, Pinyin: Dōnglíng) is a place (or by the Singapore government's administrative nomenclature, a "planning area") in Singapore. Located in the Central Region, it covers 20.89 square kilometers. Tanglin is bordered by Novena in the north, Newton, Orchard and River Valley in the east, the Singapore River in the southeast, Bukit Merah in the south, Queenstown in the southwest, and Bukit Timah in the west. The planning area of Tanglin is further divided into 4 neighbourhoods, called subzones, namely Chatsworth, Nassim, Ridout and Tyersall.
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.
