About This Image:

An aerial view captures the bustling Singapore River, where tongkangs once crowded the stretch known as the 'Belly of the Carp'. This curved section, resembling a carp's belly, was considered auspicious in Chinese culture, symbolizing prosperity and attracting merchants who established warehouses and shophouses along its banks.
