Amidst the flamboyant skyscrapers and elegantly appointed skylines are many natural attractions
in Singapore. The Labrador Nature Reserve, more popularly known as the Labrador Park, stands on the
solitary rocky precipice on the mainland, and is accessible to the public. An oasis of natural
wonder, it sprawls across acres of lush green lawns, is teeming with exotic species of birds,
butterflies and insects, and treats visitors to panoramic views of stunning sunsets over miles of
sea. Since 2002 this protected landmass grows cliff-side vegetation, to the melodies of the
Black-naped Oriole and the Oriental Magpie-robin.
The Labrador Nature Reserve consists of 10 hectares of coastal secondary vegetation and has a
rich variety of fauna and flora, offering nature lovers a delightfully surprising treat. Meandering
among the verdant leaves and roots are over 70 species of birds and roughly 11 species of
butterflies amongst the myriad of insects and spiders each of whom has their own function in
keeping the luxuriant woodland a self-perpetuating habitat. For the potential historian or the
inquisitive adventure seeker, there is a horde of remnants dating from World War II.Visitors have
the opportunity to interactively learn about Singapore’s military history and its experience of
British rule during the era.
The Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore, along the banks of the Singapore River offers
along with its elegant beauty and exquisite lifestyle, exclusive serviced suites and apartment
style accommodation to satisfy the needs of the international traveller. The exotic aroma of
exquisite Italian cuisine is a mere introduction to the host of local and international foods that
are offered to its guests.
