The weather was not cooperating so please bear with the dark photos. We were not allowed to play in the little park because of the weather. It's dangerous for when lightning and thunder strikes. We have to wait for the weather to improve. I was lucky to see this up close. Singapore's water supply, the technology, they are so advance and yet are not shy in turning it into a tourist attraction. The structure of the lookout, with additional amenities, is an art itself. I just did not get a nice photo of it.
