Photographs of Punggol Grassland
Modern explorers ..... |
The Punggol grassland is a large open area flanked by the Punggol River at the northern Punggol district of Singapore. It is filled mostly with lallang grass and is home to many species of birds and plants. Exploring this area is like taking a step back to nature in the modern city of Singapore. However, this beautiful spot will soon disappear as it will be replaced with residential flats as part of the Punggol 21 Housing Project.
