Originally planning to jump into Macritchie national park today but due to lacking of information, we would have been too late if we did continue our plan to get to the tree top walk at Macritchie, hence the plan was altered beyond spontaneity. Instead we visited the Lower Seletar Reservoir – Fishing Jetty, Bottle Tree Park and Sembawang Shopping Center which happened to be in the vicinity of where we had “half-accidentally” been.
Lower Seletar Reservoir – Fishing Jetty: the far end of the Macritchie reservoir, nothing to be mentioned rather than it’s really fishing jetty since many people did fish for free there.
Bottle Tree Park: A really nice park, with lovely ponds and water lilies, benches, water riding ducks and utmostly “Bottle Tree” seafood restaurant. We didn’t have the chance to dine there but the price was really reasonable with nice ambience and an aircon-ed VIP room.
Sembawang Shopping Center: An very OK small shopping center reminding its location is way in the suburb. It has french toast shop called “le greenier a pain”, aston restaurant with nice price and nice spot, and splash park – water themed children park -. The shopping center is nowhere near MRT so go take free shuttle bus from Yishun/Khatib/Sembawang MRT operating in 15-20 mins interval.
Pictures to be put up later.
