Lee Loy Hin Blacksmith? Our group had no idea where this mysterious shop used to be. We walked up and down Sultan street umpteen times and had finally given up our search. We concluded that a nearby coffeeshop was what stood upon the once blacksmith shop.
It was only after I had conducted a search on the internet that I realised we were wrong. In fact, the blacksmith was once located at 39, Sultan Gate. And all that had remained of this blacksmith shop was charred ruins of a pre-war shop house. Reading up further about the shop had also informed me that the shop has been relocated to the Defu Industrial Park.
