Singapore’s rich culture unfolded in all its vibrancy during the recent Hari Raya Puasa, also known as Hari Raya Aidilfitri. This joyous festival, celebrated by Muslims worldwide, marks the culmination of the holy month of Ramadan when devotees fast from dawn to dusk. Hari Raya Puasa fell on 10th April this year and witnessed traditional religious observances as Muslims began the day with special prayers held at mosques. A cherished tradition followed as they sought forgiveness from their elders, strengthening family ties through visits and delightful home-cooked feasts.
Adding to the festive spirit was the highly anticipated Geylang Serai Ramadan Bazaar; running from 8th March to 10th April 2024, it bustled with over 500 stalls offering delicious food options, refreshing drinks, and a display of cultural delights. Beyond the festivities, visitors can immerse themselves in Malay culture throughout the year by exploring the area surrounding the bazaar known as Kampong Gelam, within easy reach of Pan Pacific Serviced Suites Orchard, Singapore. Those staying at such Orchard Road-based properties offering furnished apartments in Singapore can look forward to wandering around the charming Arab Street, visiting the Sultan Mosque, viewing traditional architecture and more.
