<p>I joined Postcrossing last month, and Ive since been keeping a look-out
for places that sell postcards, on this tiny island in South-east Asia.</p>
<p>I list a few below. Do you know of others? I hope you and I can add to
each others knowledge! :slight_smile:</p>
<h3 id="the-usual-suspects-souvenir-shops">the usual suspects: souvenir shops</h3>
<ul>
<li>somewhere in Kampong Glam (near Sultan Mosque)</li>
<li>somewhere in
Chinatown</li>
<li>Raffles Hotel</li>
<li>National Museum of Singapore</li>
<li>the shop
called Arch, in the shopping mall called Capitol, near City Hall MRT
Station</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="on-the-art-sy-side">on the art-sy side</h3>
<ul>
<li>National Gallery of Singapore</li>
<li>a pop-up bazaar called Invade, in
Esplanade Theatres</li>
<li>Objectifs Centre for Film and Photography</li>
<li>this
photographer, <a href="https://www.christinesartventures.com/and-more">Christine
Nagel</a>, has been
shooting various sights in Singapore, and sells her own photos as
postcards.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="unexpected-postcards">unexpected postcards</h3>
<ul>
<li>the (alcoholic beverages) bar called No. 5 Emerald Hill provides postcards, and mails them out to international addresses, free of charge. You can buy a drink if you feel paiseh. (Information accurate as of late 2019).</li>
</ul>

<p><em>P.S. Update, as of 23 December 2021: Ive just terminated my account at https://www.postcrossing.com/ as I fear that sending postcards around the world may damage the environment.</em></p>
