The name Jalan Besar which means ‘big or wide road’ in Malay only came about in the 1880s. Interesting (but we are not sure why), many of the street names in Jalan Besar bear the names of World War I British generals and admirals as well as two generals namely, French, Maude, Jellicoe, Tyrwhitt, Foch, Sturdee, Beatty and Petain. The names of battle places such as Flanders, Somme and Verdon are also reflected. We have specially created a list of the Top Cafes in Jalan Besar to chill out and sip gourmet beverages from the best cafes in this charming gazetted conservation area in Singapore.
