Many of these 'artefacts' usually turn out to be (think Haw Par Villa) but at least this one has some historical significance attached...hope that would help it

If I'm not wrong, the park is quite hilly. Think they will place a giant 'Long Ya Men' tooth statue there in commemoration of Admiral Zheng He's voyage this year.
Yup. But, quite easy to walk down.

I am only about 1/4 way through with the pictures... still have the beach and pier, the park itself and some more war stuff at the other end of Labrador Park. Too slow to continue now...

It will just a structure at the end of the park to mark the position of it when zheng he saw it long time ago.

You will be surprised that there are lots of activities there. I've been there during day & night time. There are usually people using the park to walk their dogs, spending quality time with their love ones (BBQ, strolling, picnic, taking pictures, etc), fishing etc. Go there this weekend to see for yourself

heh... Thank You!

The park is spacious. You'll see more people picnic nearer to the carpark side with BBQ pits and playground. I met an ex-colleague there that day
