Its a residential area with some eating locals and a supermarket. Not a shopping area

The name “Bishan”, once the largest Chinese cemetery, is the pinyinisation of its Chinese counterpart Peck San (碧山), derived from Peck San Theng (碧山亭) or Wong Wai Siew Peck San Theng (广惠肇碧山亭; Guanghuizhao bishanting) established in 1870 on the site of what is now Bishan New Town. Peck San Theng was originally built by a community of various clan associations collectively known as the Kwong Wai Siew to serve the burial needs of Cantonese and Hakka immigrants from China’s Guangdong province. The cemetery was later opened to the wider Chinese community. In September 1973, the government issued an order to stop all fresh burials and closed the cemetery. Six years later, Peck San Theng’s land was officially acquired for urban development. The notice for exhumation was given in November 1979 and from 1983 to 1990, Peck San was redeveloped into Bishan Town.
