This cache was published as part of the Singapore Geocaching Scavenger Hunt III.
The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but they are a good starting point not too far away from the final cache. You will need to follow the instructions in the listing to find the cache.

Wall murals are an irresistably immersive art form that showcases the best of public creative expression, of not only the cultural roots underpinning the local area and region, but also how the modern zeitgeist continues to mould and shape them to this day. The Kampong Glam area is one of many rich spots to appreciate some fine street art that weaves itself through the main roads and back alleys; a juxtaposition of history with modern day cultural expression.
We start (at the posted coordinates) outside the Vintage Camera Museum & Click Art Museum. Entry to either of these museums is not required to find this cache, however you may find the installations inside and outside of the museums an interesting addition to your day out here.
Snap your fill of photos outside (or inside, but not required to find this cache), before moving along.
Proceed east-northeast along Victoria Street, using the pedestrian paths on the same side of the road. Watch out for traffic as you cross both sections of Jalan Kubor.
You will come to the next checkpoint:
This is a segment of a larger, building-height wall mural titled I want to go there, and is a series of five adjacent artworks by 22 local artists from the creative industry and arts educational institutions. It tells a story of the evolution of this physical space into its current form, and also features a 3D installation of something you might find at a supermarket.
Snap your fill here, then go round the next corner into a back alley, where you'll find the host of the cache.
Retrieving the Cache:
- The cache is retrievable with either the right flat-headed tool, or some creative improvisation (perhaps a card?).
- Please do not remove the self-inking stamp from the cache.
- Exercise stealth! While you won't get into trouble for fiddling with the cache host, please avoid loitering directly in front of the neighbours' back doors.
Please return everything to the exact state you found it in, including ensuring that the host is properly closed and secured!
Enjoy your visit!
