Before our trip I struggled to uncovering this house inwards whatever of the guidebooks nosotros induce got as well as having right away been in that place I suspect it would non be on the casual tourist's itinerary whilst inwards Singapore.
When nosotros visited the reserve it was surprisingly quiet, peaceful as well as relatively empty, we seemed to last nearly the solely people there. As in that place isn't much in that place I can't imagine it always existence sum of tourists as well as locals but that made it pleasant for a relaxing afternoon. The reserve has several relics left from the Second World War equally it is correct past times the coast as well as was used equally business office of the coastal defences of Singapore both during that specific menstruation of history (though Singapore was non invaded via the body of body of water equally it turned out) and earlier that. As it had been identified equally an ideal defense strength site to protect the entrance to the harbours of Singapore. 
It is no longer used for that operate as well as has later cash inwards one's chips a designated nature reserve to protect the plants, wildlife and the rocky shore describe of piece of job there. Although we were able to see the remains of the fort that was on the site I understand in that place are too or as well as hence tunnels which tin last explored. Unfortunately though they are currently closed for renovation as well as hence nosotros could non cash inwards one's chips into them. The moving-picture present below taken through a gap inwards a metallic gate is the closest I got.
It seemed that equally good equally the tunnels existence closed a lot of the restaurants etc. were too unopen but nosotros eventually institute a squeamish eating theater appropriately called The Labrador for a belatedly lunch. Whilst in that place I accomplished or as well as hence other offset ..... trying cuttle fish. As amongst many of the other fish dishes I've tried late the cuttle fish was squeamish plenty but I uncertainty I'll last ordering it i time to a greater extent than out of choice.
I can't nation the nature reserve would necessarily last somewhere I'd last looking to provide to whatever fourth dimension presently but for a pleasant afternoon away from the hustle as well as bustle it for sure was worth a visit. If goose egg else peradventure when they re-open the tunnels it volition last worth or as well as hence other trip.
