The latest walking trail must be Punggol Heritage Trail. Singaporeans have already taken a liking to brisk walking all over Singapore, mostly started cause of covid when we could not travel overseas and had to do a little adventure around Singapore.
I too started walking with my siblings hahaha.
Very convenient to reach Punggol Heritage Trail, we just take the MRT train to Punggol Coast MRT Station and started walking.
There is a map to direct our path, it is very easy as it is just one straight pathway however the heritage trail is not 100% completed.
This used to be a road where cars and buses travel along the road. Now it is closed to traffic.
Read how this place used to be a zoo, I did not even know it . I was still a child in 1963. The only zoo I know is in Mandai haha.
The old bus stop is still here and the bus will never come , this bus stop now acts as a shelter for people to hide from the rain.
It was a pleasant and easy walk and soon we spotted Punggol Sports Centre still under construction. The centre houses a full sized indoor swimming complex, multi purpose indoor sports halls, fitness gyms and wellness studios, outdoor courts and recreational areas and community activity rooms and event spaces. It is due to open in 2026. More from source
The trail continued all the way to punggol waterway
Barringtonia racemosa, also known as Common Putat, has pendulous inflorescence, up to 1m long. The flowers are night-blooming and have filamentous stamens that are white, pink or red. The bark and fruits are crushed and used as fish poisons as they contain toxic saponins. source
