Yeah, the southern coast of Singapore can be pretty eerie in places. Those abandoned buildings near Pasir Panjang…that's a mix of old military stuff and remnants from the port's expansion. Some are former British military installations, dating back to WWII and even before. Others are just old warehouses and factories that got left behind as the port moved and modernized. The graffiti? Probably just kids messing around, or maybe some street artists. It's not exactly a well-kept secret, though, so you're not alone in finding it a bit... unsettling. There aren't any major, crazy stories attached, it's more of a slow decay kind of mystery. Think forgotten history, not haunted houses.

Yeah, NUH parking is infamous. It's a total cluster. There aren't really any "secret" lots; it's just always busy. Your best bet is to arrive super early, or maybe try using Grab or a taxi. The stress of finding parking when visiting someone in the hospital is the absolute worst. Hope your aunt recovers quickly.
