Punggol, Waterfront residential area in North-East Region, Singapore.
Two rivers, Sungei Serangoon and Sungei Punggol, frame this modern residential district with extensive parks and waterways spanning across the peninsula.
The area transformed from a rural fishing village into a planned township following the Singapore government's residential development program initiated in the late 1960s.
The name originates from the Malay word 'panggul', referring to the sound of logs being pushed down the river in its early trading days.
The district connects to Singapore's center through the North-East MRT line, Punggol LRT system, and multiple bus routes serving its 190,000 residents.
A network of man-made waterways integrates with housing developments, creating opportunities for water activities such as kayaking throughout the neighborhood.
