CNY lights at Pang Sua Pond in Bukit Panjang
For those of us who are looking to catch a break from crowded mainstream places for CNY, we have netizens of Bukit Panjang to thank as they’ve unearthed a hidden gem in their neighbourhood.
Behold, Pang Sua Pond, a wetland attraction in the heartlands that offers a natural respite amid breathtaking scenery.
The nature destination is known for being Singapore’s second-largest man-made floating wetland system, and now, its equally impressive CNY lights set-up.
The cobblestone walkway takes us back to the days where we could navigate the narrow alleyways of Jiufen — the mountain town in Taiwan.
Taking pictures at the boardwalk
With vibrant lights and lanterns bathing the place in a warm glow, the boardwalk looks like the perfect spot for family and couple photos.
If your camera is good enough, come in a dreamy dress and try taking OOTD shots here in the night. We’re sure the results will be lit enough for the ‘gram.
Here’s a view of the lights from afar. You can even catch the shimmery lights being reflected on the water.
