Raffles Place MRT Station (EW14/NS26) is a major interchange station of the Singapore MRT system. It is located beneath the financial district of Raffles Place, which is in the Downtown Core of Singapore. The North South Line and East West Line pass through here.

When it opened on 12 December, 1987, the Raffles Place MRT Station was the biggest subway station in Singapore. It has since moved to third place behind the Dhoby Ghaut and Bras Basah stations.

The Raffles Place MRT Station is linked to Raffles Xchange, a subterranean mall, located at Basement 1. Raffles Xchange provides seamless link from the MRT station to the surrounding buildings such as Hitachi Tower, Republic Plaza, Chevron House and UOB Plaza.

Visiting Singapore?

Hello and thanks for visiting Singapore Travel Tips! I'm Tim.

I created Singapore Travel Tips to showcase all the sights and attractions that you can find in this tropical island nation. Please like my Facebook Page - just click the thumbnail on the left to visit it, and let me update you every once in a while.


If you're planning a trip to Singapore any time soon, let me help you make your preparations. First of all, here's a list of my most useful pages, to help you plan your trip:
  1. Arriving at Changi Airport
  2. Arriving in Singapore by train
  3. Taking the bus in Singapore
  4. Taking the taxi in Singapore
  5. Singapore Mass Rapid Transit Trains
The next thing is to look for accommodation in Singapore. Compared to other cities in Asia, accommodation in Singapore is not cheap, so it pays to do a bit of homework. For this, I provide you the search engine to compare prices provided by different hotel booking sites such as Agoda, Travelocity, Expedia, etc. This system automatically shows you the lowest price based on your travel date. Just follow the link below:



Next, you might want to prepare money for your trip. The currency used in Singapore is the Singapore dollar. The following are the latest rates in the last 24 hours.



While traveling independently provides freedom, using a tour operator provides convenience and comfort, not to mention the opportunity to experience things that have been pre-arranged for you. A tour provider that I could recommend is Exotissimo Travel. Finally, you might want to view some of travel books to give you more knowledge of Singapore ahead of your visit. Here are some books you can get directly from Amazon.
