Looking for something a bit different, which show cases traditional pottery design, then a trip to Thow Kwong Pottery Jungle is a must. Not many know about it, as the Singaporean taxi driver that took us there, as well as the one that brought us back claim amazement when they found the place. It is stacked high with different types of pottery. They also have a Dragon Kiln which is amazing to see. They have a variety of pottery making activities and workshops but you need to find out the timings as it is not regular. It is about 20mins by taxi from Singapore city centre but well worth the drive.

A great place to indulge in a vanishing art and soak in the atmosphere of a bygone era. Enjoy the thrill of learning how master pieces can result from the humble clay...enlightening way to idle...

I went there expecting to see production happening. But it was more like a large ceramic store. Also most stuff here was from china and other places. A very small display of locally produced ceramic ware could be seen.
We saw the dragon kiln. When not in use it was just a winding mound

This wonderful 'dragon kiln' is a timber fired brick kiln snaking up a hillside in Singapore, under threat from encroaching development and loss of Jungle. It is fired once a year and would be a sight to see. There are regular pottery workshops and atmospheric buildings full of ceramics for purchase. This sight is a glimpse of another world, before Singapore became a high tech hub of commerce.

Once upon a time, this Dragon Kiln produced much of the crockery for home and local restaurant uses, amongst other things. It has an ancient technology where the kiln could be heated up to a 1000 degree centigrade. While newer technologies could make such produce cheaper and faster, the results with the wood fired kiln are very different. One of the diminishing kilns in the world, it should be preserved. More locals and foreign visitors should know about this place. Reaching there at this moment is still a challenge without direct public transport.
