Brisk walking at Bidadari Park Singapore

Spend weekend, brisk walking at the new park at Bidadari. Bidadari used to be a cemetery but now becomes a housing estate with a park. Singapore is a very small country, we do not have enough land for the living so many cemeteries were exhumed.

Way before Bidadari is a cemetery, it used to be a private land belongs to some rich people.

The new Bidadari Park is nice for brisk walking and jogging and exercising. There were many tall trees that provided shades.

In the middle of the park is a lake , is a huge rain tree. The lake served as a storm water retention pond.

During heavy rain, the lake area will be closed to public.

The park looked small but is actually quite a nice place to jog. Haha we found many coins (about S$2) on the pavement, I guess the coins were dropped by joggers.

There's a nice playground in the park.

Children loved watching the fishes in the lower marshland. 

Nearest MRT Station to Bidadari Park is Woodleigh  MRT Station. 

 

Woodlands Waterfront Park - Brisk Walking

Taking the thomson east coast line MRT to Woodlands North MRT Station. The train is very empty as not many people would visit this station unless is a working day. 

Arrived at Woodlands North MRT Station, we could walk to Woodlands Waterfront Park from this station (think about 15 mins or so) but as it was starting to drizzle, we decided to take the bus only one bus stop away from the station.

There is only one bus number at this bus stop outside the station but do looked carefully as there are two routes with the same bus number. One is going to Yishun Interchange while the other going to Woodlands Interchange. We need take the bus 856 heading to Woodlands Interchange and alight only one bus stop away from the MRT Station.

In less than 5 mins, we arrived at Woodlands Waterfront Park

It was a great view from the park, we could easily view Malaysian buidlings from the park. 

The jetty at the Woodlands Waterfront is the longest jetty in Singapore.

There is even a restaurant along the jetty.

We could   view the uncompleted Johor to Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) link. I thinks it is about 83% completed (as at August 2024). When completed, the ride from Singapore to Johor is only about 5 mins ride and no worry about traffic jam.  Looking forward to its completion.
