Sembawang Hot Spring Park set to reopen on Jan 4, will have a Large Cascading Pool & Floral Walk source: https://www.greatdeals.com.sg/2019/12/30/sembawang-hot-spring-park-reopens For those who missed Singapore’s only natural hot spring, the Sembawang Hot Spring (Park) located at Gambas Avenue between Woodlands Avenue 12 and Sembawang Road is currently finishing up its renovation. According to NParks, the hot spring area will reopen on 4 January this Saturday. New Pool & Amenities The updated public park will have a new Cascading Pool, featuring natural spring water that was previously found in the same area. According to the artist impressions provided by NParks, the pool also comes with sitting so that visitors can dip their legs into the pool which is said to have health healing properties. Visitors will also be able to cook eggs from the running hot spring water but of course, you have to bring them yourselves. There will be jogging paths and sheltered walkways in case it rains. The redevelopment also means there are more amenities for visitors to enjoy the surrounding nature and unwind from the hustle and bustle of the city. For those who have never visited the hot spring park, this is how it looks like previously. Inside the red brick enclosure is a hot spring well that was discovered way back in 1909. However, NParks did not state if the enclosure has been removed or repurposed for other uses with the redevelopment. Guess we will only know when it opens later this week. Here’s a map detailing the areas and amenities of the renewed Sembawang Hot Spring Park. Make a date with your friends and family this weekend and don’t forget to bring your eggs along for a healthy snack. Sembawang Hot Spring Park Address: Gambas Ave between Woodlands Ave 12 and Sembawang Rd Opening Hours: 7am – 7pm daily Nearest MRT Station: Canberra or Yishun https://www.google.com/maps?ll=1.43011,103.829582&z=13&t=m&hl=en&gl=SG&mapclient=embed&cid=17342367463741762658

CNA : Capitol Theatre to reopen in April 2015 SINGAPORE: The historic Capitol Theatre will reopen in April 2015 with the staging of a musical that depicts the lives and struggles of Singaporeans, including former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, as they built a new nation. Called "Singapura - The Musical", the show will be produced by The 4th Wall Theatre Company. The musical will travel to London's West End and Broadway in New York following its Singapore debut. A private and invitation-only "listening preview", featuring a number of songs from the musical, will be held later this month. The plans for Capitol Singapore -- which comprises the former Capitol Theatre, Capitol Building, Capitol Centre and Stamford House -- was announced at a topping out ceremony held on Thursday. Following the S$750-million makeover, the development will comprise a luxury 157-room hotel, an upmarket retail mall, 39 high-end residences as well as Capitol Theatre, which will have close to 1,000 seats. - CNA/xq link: http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/capitol-theatre-to-reopen/1057388.html Will they keep the 'stone' flying horses ...
