Top 10 Things to do in Bukit Batok, Singapore
The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

I came here because I'm very interested in World War II history and I was not disappointed. The exhibition here is very thorough and well designed. They have kept the room where the surrender was signed in 1942 and furnished it with original/replicia furniture. There is lot of information about what life was like in Singapore before, during and after the surrender. I strongly recommend this attraction to people interetsed in World War II. It was easy to take the bus here with the bust stop just down the road from this attraction.

I found the Former Ford Factory Museum to be a place of historic significance, it was a very moving experience to walk in the footsteps of the four British Officers who surrendered Singapore to the Japanese Army on 15 February 1942. The Former Ford Factory is a beautifully restored Art Deco style building housing exhibits of enormous interest. It was quite incredible to be in the boardroom where the surrender documents were signed, the table is a replica of the original, which is currently in the Australian War Memorial. There is a film showing the events of that particular day, and the clock is stopped at just after 6pm, the time of the signing. I appreciated speaking with Frances, a staff member at the Museum. Frances is a self taught historian who is passionate and well informed about that part of Singapore's history and it was a privilege to discuss the events with her. There are many interesting things to see and we were there about three hours. We went by MRT to Hillview Station, and then about 5 minutes on a bus. Apparently it is also possible to go there directly by bus. Highly recommended, well worth it. We have decided to go back next time we are in Singapore as it is worth a second visit. Our visit cost $3 each and only credit cards are accepted.

Popular with nature lovers and runners, the Bukit Batok Nature Park offers meandering paths through the scenic forest. As you walk along the footpaths, you’ll reach look-out points – some reaching more than 10 storeys high – all of which provide breathtaking views of the surrounding areas.

Took a visit to Bukit Batok Nature Park last weekend. Entered the park from the Bukit Batok end and exited past the war memorial and down the hill to the Bukit Timah side. There is diverse nature to be seen in this park. On the day that I visited I was lucky to see the Jumbo dragon fly which is quite rare and also many other dragonflies. There were a variety of birds including the black naped orieole, myna's, flamback woodpeckers and the common woodpecker. Plantain squirrels on the branches of trees and monitor lizards in the undergrowth. The track from Batok to Timah is quite steep. If you cant walk or more appropriately hike the route you could make life easier by taking a taxi to the car park at the war memorial and walking down. I found it challenging, but not too out of breath at the end of the day. Monkeys and all kinds of insects about. The old quarry was quite picturesque. terrapins in the stream nearby.

Very scenic granite quarry. Doesn’t look like Singapore. There’s no parking onsite so park at the nearby HDB flats.
