Kranji Marshes

Spent a day outdoors the day after my exams ended. I have seen people raving about Kranji Marshes on the net so why not take a look for myself! 

We took a shuttle bus at 0830 just outside Kranji MRT station ($3 round trip that is valid the whole day, and it brings you to other places like Sungei Buloh, Bollywood Veggies and Jurong Frog Farm)

The bus dropped us off right in front of the entrance.

The walk is a pavement kind of route, so it is not challenging and takes around 20 minutes to get to the Raptor tower. Before you reach the paved route you can see some weaved sculptures like this. There are also 2 resting spots for you to rest if there is a need.




View from one of the huts. There was a nature enthusiast(?) camping there as well!
Finally we have reached the iconic tower of Kranji Marshes!

I would say that one should go to Kranji Marshes at least once to explore this place! Perhaps we had gone on a weekday (Friday) and took the first shuttle bus in, so there wasn't many people. Only 2 other girls alighted at Kranji Marshes with us. I enjoy the peace and the breeze when I'm at the tower :)
