  11. Delivery The subject of my talk is MacRitchie Reservoir Park in Singapore. I'd like to begin by describing the park and its amenities, and then I'll go on to explaining how to get there by public transport from RELC. MacRitchieReservoir is Singapore's oldest reservoir. There is a boardwalk so you can walk along the edge of the scenic reservoir and a number of walking trails through the surrounding forest. In addition to the boardwalk, another popular attraction is the Tree Top Walk which is a suspension bridge 25m above the ground. People really enjoy walking along this bridge and enjoying the amazing views of the reservoir and forest from this vantage point. The reservoir also has toilets, drinking fountains and a food kiosk. If you visit MacRitchie Reservoir, you are sure to see a few monkeys also, so be careful not to offer them any food. Let's turn now to how to get there. From RELC, walk to the main road and take Bus 132 for 10 stops. The journey will take you only 15 minutes from RELC and cost $1.20. Let me summarise what we’ve looked at. I talked about the what you can do and see at MacRitchie Reservoir Park and also how to get there by public transport. In conclusion, MacRitchie Reservoir Park is a beautiful nature park in Singapore which is easily reached by public transport from RELC. If you would like me to elaborate on any point, please ask.
