Need a break from the hustle lifestyle? 😅
Go jogging! 🏃
If you dislike jogging, it’s fine too. The places listed down are good for taking a stroll and unwind after a busy week. 🚶♂️ It’s great for photo taking sessions too!
❗ Monkeys or other wildlife might be spotted in some of the places listed. Please stay away from them and look from far for your own safety! In Singapore, it is also illegal to feed any animal at a national park or nature reserve under the Parks and Trees Act.
Not only does jogging keep you fit, but it helps to fight stress too. Let’s all put on our running shoes and go for a jog! 👟
