Bukit Batok Nature Park occupies about 36 hectares, covered mostly by natural secondary vegetation. The park is a former granite quarry and has undulating and meandering footpaths leading to scenic look-out points, some more than 10-storeys high. Near the entrance of the park, at the foot of a high cliff wall is a picturesque 1.2 ha pond. The pond runs deep and still - a relic from the mining days of the region. There are also fitness stations, restroom, jogging track and nature trails.
Two memorials, one for Japanese soldiers and the other for Allied soldiers sat on this hill-top site - Bukit Batok Memorial Site.
Geologically, the core of Singapore comprises a granite complex called the Bukit Timah Granite. In more central parts of Singapore, including Bukit Batok and Bukit Timah, this granite was exposed during the last century by quarrying. Bukit Batok Nature Park was developed on an abandoned quarry site in 1988 and this feature has been preserved as a tranquil lake, providing a home to native wildlife.
Bukit Batok used to be a sleepy rural area with forest, farm lands and factories. Granite quarrying was among the early activities there since 1950s. In fact Bukit Batok in Malay means "Coughing Hills" as the blasting made the hills appear to be coughing.
At the top of Bukit Batok hill, which the MediaCorp's tower now stands, is the site of two memorials built by the Japanese for their war dead as well as for the Allied soldiers. Both were demolished by the Japanese. Today, all that remains are two pillars and 120 concrete steps leading up to the transmission tower.
