This post is to share the photos I took during night photo shooting in Chinatown after the cock or rooster (whatever you prefer) decorations are set up and the streets around the area are closed for the new year market to operate. If you are not from Singapore, Chinatown is place you must visit when you travel to Singapore even when not during the Chinese New Year.
这帖就是分享我在夜间到牛车水(新加坡的唐人街) 拍摄新年装饰和年货市场的情形。那里的街道都封了摆摊做年货市场。如果你从外地到新加坡,牛车水该是一定要去的景点。
Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year also very often referred to as Chinese New Year. So, let me wish everyone a “Happy New Year!”.
首先,今天大年初二,先跟大家拜个年。

Walking in Chinatown | 在牛车水逛逛
晚上好,看看公鸡有多高。继续在路上也有很多装饰。

The night crowd is always more than the day crowd.
晚上出来逛的人总是比白天多。

Bak Kwa is barbecue sliced park which is must have for many during the Chinese New Year. The queue for the famous Lim Chee Guan starts early every year.
很多人都喜欢在过年期间买肉干回家或送礼。这家署名的林志源每年都提早排长龙。

Bee Cheng Hiang has more stalls throughout the country and 2 in Chinatown.
美真香在全国开很多间。在牛车水就有两间。

有很多摊位买的是瓜子,花生和各类新年糕饼。

Every year, there are a couple of stalls selling waxed meat or preserved meat. Maybe, it’s more understable if I explained it as some kind of cured meat.
每年总有至少两个摊位卖腊味。

累了可以找个地方吃晚餐。晚了就要排队。

There’s a shop selling some kind of flutes.
有个摊位在买陶笛。
![Slide85ec87c.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/http://www.steemimg.com/images/2017/01/27/Slide85ec87c.jpg)
There are shops selling souvenirs year round and some of them also deals in Chinese New Year decorations but this one does not. So, it’s not crowded.
卖纪念品的店也不少。有些也会卖新年装饰品但这家没有所以也没多少顾客。
![Slide799cf57.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/http://www.steemimg.com/images/2017/01/27/Slide799cf57.jpg)
Lots of decorations you can buy. I had more time compared to when I was shooting in the day. Besides, the day tends to be warmer which is probably why the crowd is bigger at night. So, I had more time to shoot the decorations in details.
买不完的新年装饰。我比日间拍的时候有跟多时间。而且,晚上比较凉快。可能这就是为何晚上比较拥挤。所以拍下的装饰也比较多。

This is one shot I like. The challenge of the lions.
很喜欢这张“狮王争霸”。

Which one do you like?
你喜欢哪一种?
One of the shop have this in-house God of Wealth. Now, that’s what I call competitive advantage.
其中一个商店有这个自家财神爷。 这可我为他们带来竞争优势。
![Slide68eda7e.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/http://www.steemimg.com/images/2017/01/27/Slide68eda7e.jpg)
Before reaching the bus-stop for the bus home, I took a picture of the decorations in the middle of the road.
没到车站前拍下了路中央的装饰。。
![Slide99fb13c.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/http://www.steemimg.com/images/2017/01/28/Slide99fb13c.jpg)
More decorations along the way to the bus-stop.
去车站路途中拍的两张。
![Slide9420a7f.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/http://www.steemimg.com/images/2017/01/28/Slide9420a7f.jpg)
![Slide97ada1c.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/http://www.steemimg.com/images/2017/01/28/Slide97ada1c.jpg)
This was taken when I was on the bus to go home and so I say “Bye” to the rooster.
这张是搭公车回家时拍到的。最终还有机会跟公鸡道别。

Thanks and thank you for your comment

Thank you and thanks for your comment
The China town in Singapore is beautiful, thanks for sharing these photos... feels like I was there :) Happy New Year!!
You are welcome. Happy New Year to you too.
This is the place I always go for dinner and shopping after flight haha. I saw this rooster last week. so I was stuck there for awhile because all the people were taking pictures with this large rooster on the crossroads. Funny. Anyways, Happy New Year :)
Thanks. If you are still and want to see some fireworks at 9pm go to the River Hong Bao at the floating platform. There you can see the 财神。 Nearby there's a local food place called gluttons bay.
