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.
