District 25 Singapore

Want To Know About The District 25 Singapore? 

District 25 Singapore, which includes Kranji and Woodlands, is the most direct route between Singapore and Malaysia via the Causeway explains the throngs at bus interchanges for weekend travels to Malaysia. District 25 Singapore is particularly noteworthy in Singapore’s cultural history as a crucial battleground during WWII soldiers from Australia, New Zealand, and the British Commonwealth gave their life in defence of the city-state. The Kranji War Memorial has commemorated this event by serving as the final resting place for these soldiers who served the Singapore nation. Furthermore, Woodlands acquired its name from the rubber plantations that used to be the doorway to Malaysia across the Causeway in the early days.

Kranji

The Singapore Turf Club, Singapore’s only racecourse for horse racing, is located in the Kranji Industrial Park area containing industrial buildings. In Malay, ‘Kranji’ means tamarind tree in District 25 Singapore. A railway was established here in 1903, and it later connected to Malaysia. Kranji was an important battleground during World War II, with 40,000 Australian, New Zealand, and British Commonwealth men dying defending Singapore. The Kranji War Memorial is now not simply the final resting place of these courageous troops but also a memorial to them.

Woodlands

Despite its name, Woodlands is currently devoid of woods; however, the neighbourhood’s name derives from the rubber plantations that once dotted the area. It is well-known as the principal gateway to Malaysia via the Causeway, and it congests with thousands of employees going between Singapore and Malaysia.
