SPI Spooky Walk @ Bukit Brown Cemetery
on 4 April 2010, Sunday
This spooky wall is carefully selected to be held on 4/4 that is just prior to the annual Qing Ming festival (aka Chinese All Souls Day or Tomb Sweeping day) on the following day 5/4. Refer to wiki article here about Qing Ming.
Rich in Chinese cultural belief and ritualistic practices the atmosphere is, you will set foot on one of the oldest Singapore surviving cemeteries where you can observe a buffet of antique tombs and offering activities.
Don’t miss this historical event as the cemetery is destined to be urbanized in time, and the construction of the nearby Bukit Brown MRT station at Jalan Mashor is due to be completed this year.
