碧山(英語:Bishan),新加坡中部一個社區,位於大巴窑以北,宏茂橋以南,实龙岗以西,面積大約3平方公里(1.2平方英里),主要為住宅區。其命名源自一個名為碧山亭(Peck San Theng)的廣東籍墳場。該墳場於1870年由來自廣州、惠州和肇慶的移民所建立,而新市鎮正正就建築於舊墳場之上。碧山是公教中學及萊佛士書院的所在地。 随着城市发展,土葬方式逐渐被淘汰,华人祭祖活动的许多繁文缛节也渐渐简化。过去,多数华人祭祖,都会到坟地去扫墓,而现在则是到骨灰安置所。就像碧山亭,也从当年的坟山,变成如今的骨灰安置所。 广惠肇碧山亭1870年成立,占地有115公顷,坟山面积相等于三分之二个碧山镇,总共有大约10万个坟墓,主要是广东人和客家人的埋葬地。碧山亭在1973年停止土葬,从1983年开始逐步改建成骨灰安置所。 碧山亭的坟墓有个特色。在这10万个坟墓之中,有些看似同行埋在一起,实际上这些叫做总坟。所谓总坟就是没有棺木的衣冠冢,供后人集体祭拜,即使往生者没有子孙还是能得到香火。总坟大致上有三类,一类是同行,一类是同姓,再一类,就是来自于同一个家乡。 碧山亭虽然是个坟山,但里头也有不少居民。当时这个村子就叫做“甘榜山亭”。村子的名字,与坟山内的建设有关。当年,坟山里头有12座亭子,给后人祭祖的时候歇脚用,也是大家用来指路的地标。 rdf:langString

rdf:langString Bishan (/bɪʃʌn/), also known as either Bishan New Town or Bishan Town, is a planning area and matured residential town located at the northernmost portion of the Central Region of Singapore. Statistically, the area is ranked the 38th biggest in terms of geographical size and the 22nd most populated planning area in the country. It is located at the most Central point of Singapore, and it comprises Upper Thomson, Marymount, Shunfu, Sin Ming, Bishan North and Bishan East. There are also many private residential properties in Bishan. Bishan is ranked 15th in terms of population density. Apart from its boundary with the Central Water Catchment in the west, Bishan borders three other planning areas: Ang Mo Kio to the north, Toa Payoh to the south, and Serangoon to the east. What is now Bishan today was once land that belonged to Kwong Wai Siew Peck San Theng, a century old cemetery that mainly served the Cantonese and Hakka communities in Singapore. Following the establishment of the cemetery in 1870, the first human settlements began to appear in the area, forming what eventually became Kampong San Teng. During the Battle of Singapore in 1942, Peck San Theng was the site of a fierce firefight between the invading Japanese forces and the defending British. The subsequent fall of the island to the Japanese that same year eventually made Peck San Theng a place of refuge for most of the Singapore population. In 1973, Peck San Theng ceased accepting burials, and six years later, following a government lease, the land was acquired for development. Graves were then exhumed between 1982 and 1984, paving the way for the construction of Bishan New Town in 1983. Today, Peck San Theng remains in operation, although it has since been converted into a columbarium. Bishan New Town became the first in Singapore to depart from the brutalist design seen in most previous Housing and Development Board (HDB) towns. Instead of slab-like residential blocks that were built in uniformed rows, apartment blocks in Bishan varied in height and were often dislocated. Flats within the town also featured pitched roofs which have since become closely associated with the skyline of Bishan. The town is also home to three of Singapore's most prestigious educational institutions: Catholic High School, Raffles Girls' School, and Raffles Institution.
