Bottle Tree Park - WW

We were on our way to visit friends and passed by this cool park. We drove in to take a look and ending up spending a couple of hours exploring it.



The Bottle Trees were imported from Australia, making a wonderful feature adding beauty to any landscape. They provide good shade and photo opportunities.


The place was packed with people fishing at its big lake amidst tranquil environment on a lazy public holiday.

For couples, you could go swan paddling on the lake, rental of one swan is at S$9 per 15 min block.

There are lots of lovely spots for photo taking.Both adults and kids will enjoy exploring the park.


Go for a walk round the park where there is also a small farm and try to identify the different kinds of plants and trees in it.

Admission is free.

  1. This place is so near my office yet I have not explored. Alright, admittedly, I haven't figured where the entrance is....

    The idea of swan paddling seems cool.
