This is the top of a viewing platform, a 50 ft structure in the centre of the reserve. No lift is available, just plain steps to the top. It offers a commanding view of the whole reserve and into the horizon. There were no high hills to block the view. Ponds and vegetations on all sides.
Lying at the southernmost tip of the Asia land mass, extended by the Malayan peninsula, is a little gem of a bird sanctuary. The Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserve is tucked at the far western corner of the Singapore island and accessible within 30 mins from the buzzling city centre. This is a 130 hectares of oasis for migratory birds escaping the harsh winters as far north as the Asian tundra. Here is a tropical paradise of peace and tranquility.
