Possibly The Most Beautiful Town in Singapore | PUNGGOL🇸🇬

Today, I visited the North-Eastern area of Singapore called Punggol. I took a walk to one of the HDB situated right next to the river. If you lived here, you can take a walk along the river everyday.. So nice. I also cycled to Punggol Beach, where Sook Ching took place.
Overall, beautiful town. The purple line of Punggol takes you to Dhoby Ghaut, ChinaTown and HarbourFront in 20-30minutes. Quite convenient!
If you want to take the same route as I did, you can check out Google Maps from the link below. I pinned the places I visited. Enjoy!

Ghib, you are very hardworking. Almost a new video everyday. Kudos to you. Ponggol is indeed a nice estate also because it is a relatively new HDB estate. And by the way, you saw a lot of military planes flying is because there is an air-show going on.

[@λάδα]

I am sure he will get citizenship faster

[@kanako4227]

Hi I’m Japanese living in Singapore. I really like Punggol . Very peaceful and beautiful. I hope someday I can move to there.

[@youngking4363]

I live in Punggol. 今日本語の勉強しているですが、ぜひポンゴウに遊びにきて下さい。。。

[@kanako4227]

@@youngking4363 はい！いきます😊

[@melodymichell]

英語と日本語を半々で喋ってくれるので助かる 字幕も英語と日本語の両方あるので嬉しい！

[@seriousyrius7334]

Didn't see any comment on the sub titles. Loved the effort put into the new subtitles!

[@avidmodeller559]

Hi Ghib, you might wanna try travelling the same route again but at night. The view is wonderful too and you will perspire less =)

[@gilbertteo]

thanks for the dual hardsubs! it's much easier to read than the youtube captions!

[@pkuma1963]

Your KZbin clips are great! I go through Singapore fairly regularly now, spending three or so nights on my way back to Sydney from Tokyo. I have often seen Punggol as I think a terminating station in the MRT, but never been there. It might indeed be worth an afternoon, just to see the beach, walk or ride through the riverside, and check out the amazing architecture. Singapore is great for an architecture buff like me, as I enjoy taking lots of photos of great architecture and cityscapes, editing them on photoshop for artistic effect etc. Just a hobby. I haven’t gone through all your clips yet, but have you checked out Tiong Bahru? It is possibly my favourite part of Singapore. Streamline Moderne housing estate. Also, have you walked around Alexandra Park where a whole lot of Black and White houses are located. Very leafy, dry green, very quiet, and beautiful architecture. I wanted to to travel in July this year, to Tokyo and Singapore, but I might have to put that on hold until the Covid-19 is no more. Keep up the great work!

[@retrorider7521]

your video always makes me love singapore even more. thank you!

[@laserspud]

Ojisan is moving everywhere in singapore but yet i fail to meet him😭

[@kl6802]

Welcome to Punggol!! If you visit the park in the evening, you can catch sunset at Jewel Bridge (opposite direction from where you started cycling) The temperature cools during the night and it’s nice. So glad you visited this lovely park!

[@スパイク-f7t]

今回、地図が掲載されてて、位置関係がすごくわかりやすいです。 ありがとうございます😊

[@lynnng8682]

Absolutely love this type of video, I don’t find it boring at all. 👍

[@mychemicallemongee2885]

Lower Peirce Reservoir and Changi Beach has AMAZING sunsets!! You should go there around 5-6pm!!

[@gwto7448]

Down to earth, realistic video... Keep life simple to enjoy simplicity. Love your video bro..

[@JJ-iu6sr]

I am a Singaporean, but didn't know Punggol is so beautiful. Thanks for making this video!

[@blankz-4491]

*IF* ever Singapore has a lockdown , i’ll just watch your videos to remember the singapore scenery and vibes , thank you for uploading and exploring singapore and showing your experiences ❤️

[@summerc.5369]

This place is just as beautiful as all the other touristy places I've seen in Singapore, yet it's so far from the city center. It seems so tranquil, if not for the planes. Thanks for taking us along. It's not boring at all. I enjoyed it.

[@pikachiew78]

9:55 such tranquil green lands may not last for long due to development, haha.. If you like nature trails, you can explore the nature trails/parks in Singapore

[@GhibOjisan]

Yes very sad... but I know it can't be helped. Not enough space!

[@QzSG]

@@GhibOjisan Try walking the pipeline trail if you are up for a really ulu adventure with nature, pretty sure thats a thing 9 out of 10 Singaporeans also wont even know :)

[@palmtree_]

I guess the fact that it's empty land is because it's already reserved for some development. Otherwise it will be left as forest

[@zueinder89]

Really recommend you visit Ubin or Lazarus Island. That's really good greenery and accessible.

[@sodapop1999]

Thank you for showing the beautiful sights in Singapore.

[@ddanieltjang]

If you want to see a different slice of Singapore, you should head up to Wessex estate (near one North). There are also wide open spaces, filled with old colonial style black-and-white houses. If you come in the morning, you will often see red junglefowls roaming around (and the occasional snakes).

[@emmamori1020]

おつジブおじ〜 飛行機の音以外は、とても綺麗で豊かで 静かな街ですね！ ゆく末、ホーカーズがなくなってしまうかもなんですね... それはどおにかしないとだね。 日本にはピザの自販機とかありますが、 チリクラブ🦀の自販機は凄いですね❗️ ぜひ買ってみて食べて欲しかったです。 空が広く見えました！ 癒されるね〜

It is never boring when you love the place..... Thank you for showing a quite place in SG.

[@dannysoh9467]

Wow u must be settling well here to use the word 'ulu' in one of your subtitles :)

[@cuclainne]

Nice to see that you visited Punggol Point/End.. My paternal families used to live in a village there and my great-grandfather was the village head. I had many fond memories of the place as a child - we used to go for picnics at Coney Island. I went back there with my family after the redevelopment and so much has changed.

[@NA-tc4cj]

Punggol地域の開発気になってたので見れてよかったです❗️サーモン自販機、確かにありますね！！タンジョンパガーにドリアンの自販機あるんで、ぜひ試して動画にしてみてください❗️

[@Hope-go2nd]

It's interesting whenever you visit a neighbourhood, people hope that their neighbourhood will be the next one😂

[@joybernardo4887]

Ghib, how come there's nobody to say ''hi'' over there in Punggol? Maybe they are all in the shopping mall or at home, huh? But, a nice place! Thanks for sharing it.

[@ゆかり-n4b]

コロナウィルスのニュースが溢れる今、こういう動画は癒されます✨✨。 色々巡って、紹介して下さいね。

I also like to cycle along that coastline. It is really beautiful, quiet, relaxing and liberating. I listen to my favourite music when I cycle. The feeling is wonderful.

[@hikari443]

Nice thanks for sharing and I very long never go punggol can't believe there is such nice Greenery place .♥️👍

[@makhir1285]

20年前に行ったときは、自然の(っぽい)景色がたくさんありましたね。子供のワニくらいの大きさのトカゲがウロウロしてたし、セントーサ島には実を落としてないヤシの木がある静かなビーチもあって、たった一人で数時間泳いだり寝そべったりできましたね。今はどうなんでしょう。後、美術館や博物館のレベルが極端に低かったけど、そういうのは成熟したんでしょうかね。当時は若い国家なんだなと思いました。 当時世界一階数が高かったウェスティンに泊まって、テレビでシドニーオリンピックを観てたから、正に20年前ですね。ホテルの部屋係りが、明日建国35周年イベントで、この部屋から見える公園にパラシュートが降りるんだよ、目の前を降りていくんだよと嬉しそうに話してくれました。情報を知っていれば後1日いたのになぁと思いました。「建国35周年おめでとう」の書き置きをして泣く泣くチェックアウトしました。 あ、てことは、今年は建国55周年なんですね。多分、東京オリンピックの時期に。

[@Jatgiuac1]

Hi Ghib, thanks for visiting Punggol! I lived around there. I really Love your Videos!! By the way, you should try visit Lim Chu Kang there is a Goat Farm over there. You can buy Goat Milk there. And also Selatar Farm. Love your videos. :) :)

[@zakeibc]

If you visit the Lim Chu Kang area try to book a SkyGreens farm tour as well, it's a pretty amazing concept!

Ojisan, have you done any video on private residential estates? Will you consider shooting one next time?

[@ndrewpeh]

you should take a boat ride to ubin and go see chek jawa during the low tides

[@prettycatmint4514]

Your videos are very enjoyable and refreshing that I've been binge watching. I'm local but haven't been to Punggol but it'll be worth a visit.

I can't wait to move to Punggol after watching your video.

[@leechunhoe7364]

Wow, so surprised that you can still find a sharing bicycle that actually works ;)

[@Dans_Theatre]

Hey Ghib! Too bad you can't visit the lovely Pulau Sudong. It's an island used for military exercises only. I was one of the extras of the extras from my anti-tank platoon. So I was left doing my own thing - skinny-dipping in the island's lagoon (I wasn't prepared for it with a swimming trunk anyway!), and lunch, and more skinny-dipping, and dinner, and finally sleeping on the jetty in the starlit night when the rest of the guys came back from their sentry duties on the various islands and lighthouses.

[@weechungsoon]

Enjoy this video, agree with you that the place is quiet and nice.Thanks.

[@nntun03]

..yo! enjoyed your Punggol video, I live in Punggol near SAFRA. I moved here because I loved the greenery, but the daily screaming jets are a nuisance. You might have missed Punggol Marina..nice place too, where the yachts are docked and few good restaurants too. Perhaps next one.

[@robetella]

i love watching your videos as it's a form of de-stressing for me

[@mimosan5136]

ほんと途中から北海道ぽいって思った。ホーカーズもゆくゆくはなくなっちゃうかもって初めて知りました❗️それは寂しすぎる😣

[@eugenesim4407]

You should could try visit country side. Although its pretty empty, the farms really make it look remote

[@dsjc_]

That route is very scenic, I usually cycle from the east to Punggol because there is a direct route.

[@makhir1285]

舌足らず(正確には「舌余り」って感じだけど)が、英語のときも同じだ！かわいい(*´ω｀*)

[@鈴木雄太-i2l]

今度行ってみます。

[@Philson]

Yeah man... The planes are the most annoying part about living in Sengkang/Punggol.

[@kenlee3524]

no worries ,paya lebar airbase shifting out soon!

[@hschen2644]

No. I think the most annoying part is the oil refinery. "Booming", bad smell at times and strong light at night from pasir gudang.

[@thattragedy]

Hi, just to let you know, Punggol has both East and West sides. The east side is the older one and the west is newer so more BTO HDBs are being build there right now. You can also cycle to Hougang via the park connector

[@himitsu486]

im a bit sad to know wht happen on Hawker centres, but when i went there last summer i saw that Singapore is aging faster than i thought ...anyway, nice video, i enjoyed ! thx,

[@rain2269]

Ahhhh i live in punggol i totally missed you!!! Punggol is a “water town”. The names of places and LRT stops are all somewhat related to water, like “Meridian”, “Cove”, and “Coral Edge”.

[@azrikhairol4941]

Your vids are just EXCELLENT. GOOD JOB !!!

[@alexsolosm]

I really like jogging there as well. My favorite place in Singapore.

[@snoopy6606]

[@HolyEnchanta]

16:21 If you're tired of life, you should head over to Bedok Reservoir

[@johnong75]

Yes, Bedok reservoir at night. Staright to heaven.

Only Singaporeans will get this

To say it is unusual to see more greeneries and not HDB, It was usual but it is rare now.

[@patl.1640]

Hey Ghib! Thanks for such a detailed video of the Punggol Waterway area. It looks relaxing. I'll go there one of these days! Meanwhile, please visit Jurong Lake Gardens and do a video there! When you kept saying, "Is this Singapore??", I laughed to myself and thought, "Hahaha yup!" And I think you'll be equally surprised when you visit Jurong Lake Gardens. Some parts of it don't look like Singapore, too! ;)

[@GhibOjisan]

I will visit Jurong some day for sure! :)

Having been living in Singapore for slightly more than a year, your knowledge of this country is amazing, I’m truly impressed. Anyway, Punggol used to a place where pigs farm are abundant and vegetables are grown for local consumption in the early years, Singapore scene has indeed evolved over the years, now you see, next is gone.

Drinks from vending machines are usually more pricey than those at the supermarket or convenience stores, thus it might be better you stock up on them before you start your trip. You should also explore Coney island. Just remember to bring some insect repellent. :)

[@LPPL1505]

I recommend Lorong Ah Soo, Hougang Ave 1 there's plenty of good food in the hawker centre

[@AimlessSky]

That is actually a man-made "river". You could visit Tebing Lane/Punggol Container Park (in Punggol as well), there's a lot of eateries, drinks, bistros, prawning, pool and a beautiful view of Serangoon River. From there you can head on to the Lorong Halus Wetland. Its accessible via Riviera LRT station (East Loop).

[@sunnysunny1405]

Ten years ago Punggol had a lalang (susuki grass?) field bordering a wooded area. It was immensely beautiful. Of course that's gone now and I wish I took some photos back then. However apparently it's an extremely flammable grass and perhaps posed some danger
