green city spaces

Happy Place, Happy Space: Pearl’s Hill City Park

One of the things I love about Singapore is encountering green spaces unexpectedly. We noticed a sign for Pearl’s Hill City Park when we ran through Chinatown recently.

Made a note to return, and return we did this week.

Several long flights of stairs to get to the top from different parts of the hill.

At the very top is a reservoir built in 1904. It is not a very large park but a haven and delight to explore.
