Singapore is still very green............................lots of jungle.............but nobody knows this exept for soldiers...........

You still can get lost in the Singapore forest, perhaps find some undiscovered animal or plant species, or find some strange abandoned structures in the middle of the forest,........a friend even claimed he saw a railway line inside the Mandai forest.

Then of course, there is Yamashiita's gold hoard waiting to be found by some lucky soldier........

But nobody wants you to know all these secrets.........they want you to think Singapore is a concrete jungle.......why I don't know.....

Xiaozzhen SG

That's nice to know... Razz

But Singapore is still full of concrete.

When you are in the forest, you are just a tiny speck. You will feel that the forest is huge.

When you are up in the air, you 'll have a bird's eye view.

The view is different from under the crowns of the forest.

You can see this mysterious grave at the MacRichie Reservoir hiking path........but don't follow the walkway.........it's by the side of the water......

Appears to be grave of someone in the Manchurian Qing Dynasty.......what is he doing decomposing at MacRichie ?

River flowing into Upper pierce.......note the boat on the left......

From my zoom lens, I realised there's a guy fishing illegally from this boat...and it's so remote the Police can never find him..........so if you got no house to stay, you can always squat in some remote river at Upper Pierce

Water grave at macritchie if i am not mistaken is a She

The picture u took at the place opposite Amoy quee camp? Can see Yishun/Sungei Seletar reservoir from there I think.

Actually none of these places are closed, all it takes if for someone to want to explore it.

Not sure mandai have abandoned train tracks but clementi have abandoned tracks and tunnels Smile

idwar SG

But if the PUB don't mind, it looks good enough for a swim.
Also upper pierce

This scenic place is near Mandai

View of SLE from near Mandai. Who says Singapore got no scenic riverside?

You see a big longkang with grass on both sides and you think its a pretty sight? I grew up a city boy in Singapore too,its time you travel outside and get a better view.

Arapahoe SG

thought you should know when I was jogging in upper pierce the HDB wasn't there.

idwar SG

Some people say these are the remains of a bridge leading to a massive Japanese temple in the macRichie forest. The temple was built to commemorate the Japanese war dead. To prevent it from falling into British hands, the japanese burnt the place down, and the jungle took over............maybe even got buried treasure there? has anyone seen the place or give more info......?

F.raon.I.R SG

hey nice pics u have TS

livspore2006 SG

Very nice scenic pics of S'pore. But if u look at the grass (not the jungle forest part), it looks like the National Parks people have cut them regularly.

So there are some people maintaining the parks and it just takes a phone call to 999 to chase out those illegals fishing or hiding in the jungle.

People can get lost in Orchard Road during the mad GSS rush Rolling Eyes

mochou SG
