ROUTE

This route takes us through the Ghettos AKA Yishun. We started at Khatib MRT, visited the HomeTeamNS Khatib and went to see the turtle farm, then back out to see Wisteria Mall, Yishun Park, Yishun Pond, KTP Hospital, Northpoint City, Junction Nine, and finally, Canberra Plaza. I also wanted to visit the Sembawang Park, but it became too dark already (we were too slow haiya).

REFRESHMENTS

We bought drinks here and there in the malls mentioned previously, including the Cold Storate at Wisteria, and Cha Payom at Junction Nine. Dinner was at Canberra Plaza (A&W). You can also have food at the food courts in Northpoint City, Junction Nine, and Canberra Plaza.

EXPERIENCE

Yishun wasn't so bad, there just were WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE RIDING PMD and whatever scooters you'd typically find in a Ghetto. The turtles were pretty good (didn't realise there would be so many of them!). Yishun Pond was also surprisingly good, with a nice view of the water from that observation deck.

TIPS

It's an urban walk, so there isn't much risk of anything while walking. Maybe if you want to go to Sembawang Park, then maybe keep track of where the bus stops are? But besides that, just enjoy the Ghettos of Singapore with your ROUND friend.
