Need directions to go to Woodlands shopping centre

Hi,
Years back, I used to go to a place in woodlands whether they sell fabrics(dress materials). Mostly for malay dresses. But we can also make Indian salwar and kurtis out of it. I had gone there years back and now i don't remember the way to reach that place. It is not causeway shopping mall. The place which I am mentioning is somewhere in woodlands where they sell fabrics for malay dress. Can anyone tell me how to reach that place from Queenstown mrt
I have also heard about a place in geylang where they sell malay dress materials. Is that place called Jalan Pasar Baru. How do i reach this place?
I heard that the dress materials are cheaper in Woodlands. Is is so? It would be a great help if someone could tell me the bus/mrt route. Thx.

Hi Lilly,

Yes, I too had been to that place. I don't exactly remember the name of that place but its near woodlands (check) point & International agency... ( near to Marsiling MRT) But I doubt the place still exists... I heard it is under renovation.

In Geylang, there is place called geylang serau. ( near Geylang MRT) Over there, too you get lot of colourful material, curtains, bed covers/ bed sheets etc.

One more place, which I recommend to u, is Arab Street. ( near Little India) A small street full of Malay & Muslim clothing material shops, the price might vary from shop to shop but definitely, you can have a good bargain. The shops are open from 10am - 5 pm only.

ARab street the dress material is simply gorgeous but can be expensive..

as for the Woodlands one. take the train to Woodlands MRT and below the MRT station basement is the bus depot..ask any bus driver,wch bus to take to the Old Woodlands interchange... everyone knows that place...its just before the Woodlands Check point..u can also take the taxi from Woodland MRT.

Yes, thx guys for the info. Yes I go to Arab street and ususally go for nice party wear material or I buy plain silk material and do embroidery. I want to buy casual wear for my cousin in India. Thx for sending info regarding geylang. Yes I remember getting down in Marsling MRT and from there I need to take a bus to reach this place? Let me see whether I can get info about this route? Is that place called old Woodlands bus interchange?
Catch up with u guys soon.
Regards

it is Old Woodlands...u just need to tell the taxi driver..there are many many shops there for cloths ..they will know
