Bottle Tree Park (Yishun)


I believe the above map would help to solve the 'mystery' about the location of Bottle Tree Park (Yishun).

BTP opens daily from 0730hrs-0000 (7.30am - 12.00am). The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. For weekend diners, please kindly call up for reservation to avoid disappointment.

BTP has a pretty big fresh water pond for fishing and probably the biggest in Singapore. It operates daily from 8am - 5pm only. Whole day fishing costs $35.00 and Bottle Tree Pte Ltd operates this pond.

Other than fishing, it has prawn fishing and "longkang" fishing which is operated by Whitewater Recreations.

Prawn fishing starts only at 9am daily till 12am midnight. The rates are $14.50/hr. Getting two hours entitles 3omins free. If you purchase 3hrs, you are entitled an extra hour free. Personal equipment are allowed.

"Longkang" fishing is for kids. Each $10/hour ticket entitles the kido a net and a fish tank for keep (You get to bring home the net and the tank).
Mollies, guppies, sultan, gold fish and other assorted tropical fish are found in the "longkang".

Rules and regulations are available at the services.

Bottle Tree Park (Yishun) is a private property under private management. Public are required to leave the place at midnight and anyone found loitering in the park after midnight is considered as trespassing.

If you wish to hold a picnic or a bbq or a gathering at the park, the public are to consult Bottle Tree Pte Ltd for permission first, otherwise, BTP has the rights to ask you to leave if required.

Since Bottle Tree Park (Yishun) has a restaurant, STRAIGHTLY NO OUTSIDE FOOD AND DRINKS ARE ALLOWED IN THE PARK. Thus please forget about bringing your own food into the park.

The public are advised to observe the rules and regulations in using the park at all times. Since this is a private property, the management reserves the rights to ask anyone to leave who is deemed trouble maker in the park. Dont play play lor... enjoy the facilities and have fun. We are all peaceful people.

Oh, please keep your trash in the respectively places. What is respective places? Rubbish bins lor. For the past two weeks, singaporeans have been showing off what are they most capable of, LITTERING!!! It is really shameful as this park is really beautiful but damn it, people just couldnt appreciate it. Loads of litters everyday!!! We are making a fool of ourselves and our country by showing the foreign visitors how 'clean' are we. No wonder Singapore is a 'fine' country. We already face people who bring in their own food and drinks to consume in the park. The management has always been friendly and always advised the public about the rules and regulations of the park. After these picnickers have left, loads of trash are left behind... "Why you all like that???"

I cant imagine if Singapore goes without cleaners for one week... are singaporeans really living in first class environment with a third world mindset? Our actions speak for ourselves...

If I have the time, I would take some photos to show how ugly we are. Are we really blind to the trash and simply cant be bothered about keeping the any place clean? Dont blame anyone or any organization for smelly restrooms or dirty parks, got it?

"If I dont litter, the cleaners will go hungry..."
The above theory is absolutely FALSE!!!

Please help keep Singapore clean... please... please... please...

'STRAIGHTLY' NO OUTSIDE FOOD AND DRINKS ARE ALLOWED IN THE PARK, or 'STRICTLY' NO OUTSIDE FOOD AND DRINKS ARE ALLOWED IN THE PARK?

'Strictly' of course.

After so long, finally someone came to correct me...

Anyway, I have left Bottle Tree Park.

Thank you for reading.
