area near raffles would be
to the north
bishan, ang mo kio
to the west
redhill, outram, tanglin, commonwealth, clementi
to the east
aljunied, kallang.
in general, the east of singapore within vicinity of the city area is just traffic chaos, avoid kallang or aljunied if i were u.
same goes with bishan or ang mo kio
u can try tiong bahru, redhill or outram
u can go as far as buona vista but once u reach clementi, its traffic chaos.
