About Punggol Waterway:
“Punggol Waterway is Singapore’s first man-made waterway by HDB. With a length of 4.2km, it meanders through the entire Punggol Eco-Town. The design of the waterway and the landscape promenade embraces the area’s rich coastal heritage, providing more opportunities for water-based recreational activities and sports right next to the heartlands. The waterway and the new communal spaces along the promenade provide a vibrant living environment, transforming Punggol into a sustainable waterfront town of the 21st century.” – HDB

“Built around the section of Punggol Waterway and located along Sentul Crescent, Punggol Waterway Park is a great place for park users to enjoy a fun-filled day of leisure activities. The park is segmented into four different themes: Nature Cove, Recreation Zone, Heritage Zone and Green Gallery.
Fitness enthusiasts can jog or cycle on the well-maintained tracks along the promenade at both sides of the waterway while admiring the surrounding view. Alternatively, sit on the many benches placed around the park and enjoy the breeze as you listen to the soothing sounds of running, trickling, splashing and cascading water. While doing so, look out for the various types of birds that can be spotted along the Waterway.
Punggol Waterway Park is one of four parks linked by the North Eastern Riverine Loop of the Park Connector Network. The Waterway runs through the Punggol Waterway Park, and serves to increase park and water frontage for the housing estate while providing a green respite for residents. The word ‘Punggol’ in Malay means 'hurling sticks at the branches of fruit trees to bring them down to the ground', a reference to the area’s history as a fruit-growing district or as a rendezvous for wholesale fruit agents.” - NParks

It's been a year plus since most of us have stayed in, grounded or going through different lockdown restrictions at different corners of the world due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Hope everyone cope well during the movement restrictions in different parts of the world.
Life will not go back to old normal, it will be more on how we cope with the situation / restrictions and pave new way / mindset for the whole new normal.
Ride with me virtually and explore the world at your own pace.
I hope the channel provides some good pause and breathing space for you.
Stay safe, stay sane and stay healthy.
Take a breather and enjoy the ride. =)
