Kranji Reservoir, body of water
Kranji Reservoir is a water body in Singapore surrounded by a green park that spans several hectares of natural space. The site features walking paths, bridges, and two designated fishing spots along the water, with trees, bushes, and habitat for birds and fish throughout the area.
The area has a connection to Singapore's past during World War II, particularly the Battle of Kranji in 1942. A memorial plaque in the park remembers the soldiers who fought during this important event and preserves the memory of that period in the nation's history.
The name Kranji reflects the area's long-standing significance in Singapore's landscape and history. Today visitors experience how this place serves as a quiet connection between nature and remembrance, where people pause to enjoy the surroundings while honoring what came before.
The site is easily accessible by public transport and offers free parking for about 70 vehicles at two locations. Visitors should follow the rules, such as fishing only in designated areas and respecting barriers along walking paths.
The location was long overlooked by most visitors, known mainly to anglers, yet it offers quiet spots for birdwatching and exploring nature trails. Eagle Point stands out as a special viewpoint where visitors can take in a wide view of the water and surrounding vegetation.
