Weixing,

What's the exact location of this site? on streetdirectory.com the NSRCC seems to be quite a distance from Changi Coast Walk road with grass field in between & there's a canal next to it. What to tell the taxi driver on where to get off? Thanks

I agree with Mooey. I would really like to take a look and ob there but transport is a bit of a problem. Maybe David Lian may like to take us there at least once, for a change?

The NSRCC site should be one of the easily access dark site in singapore... You just tell the Taxis driver that you are going to National Service Resort & Country Club (NSRCC) at Changi Coast Road Walk. Alight at the main entrance of NSRCC and you should see a row of flower pot blocking between the road and a bicycle trail. The trail is connected to east coast park bicycle trail (not shown in streetdirectory), so just walk in until you find a suitable dark spot... the longer you walk in, the darker it will be.

Normally, we just walk in 50m or so... not dark compare to some point on the trail, but I think good enough.

Have a nice day.
