Living Harmoniously

This residential area has retained its charm and nostalgia. When it was first built in the 50's, it was predominately the homes of British military forces. They provided the much needed assistance to the government of Singapore after the devastation brought about by World War II.
Today, the landscape has changed in tandem with the overall urban redevelopment of the island. Notwithstanding that, the estate has retained its distinctiveness through a juxtaposition of a variety of ethnic communities living harmoniously, surrounded by beautiful floral and pet species. Visitors are often lured back to the 'Gardens' for its wide range of delicacies such as the famous Hainanese chicken rice, nasi beriyani, laksa, char kway teow alongside with several new alfresco dining outlets and of course, the Chomp Chomp Food Centre. Welcome to Serangoon Gardens!
