In 1983, a dam was built across the mouth of Seletar River to create this scenic reservoir you see today. Known as ‘Sungei Seletar Reservoir’ then, it was renamed in 1992 as Lower Seletar Reservoir.
This reservoir is one of the last water sources to be developed in Singapore. Besides providing water to Singaporeans, the reservoir is also a place for recreation and community-building today. Come by during a weekend and you can usually see people kayaking or dragon-boating here!
