Holland Village is located near the Buona Vista MRT station in Singapore. I have not checked the exact history and do not know why it is called as such apart from the fact that its landmark is a windmill that you can see somewhere in the distance on the above picture. What came first? The windmill or the name? Anyway, it is a small enclave full of eateries as well as a few interesting shops. I sometimes go there for some cheap (or not so cheap) meals for lunch. It is too much of an expatriate hangout to my liking but it still manages to retain a different spirit that makes the place interesting.
