Japanese Cemetery Park

It is now a memorial park, and contains the graves of many Japanese expats and World War II soldiers. The park is open daily from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. People can be seen jogging around.

My friends recommend me a park so I can meditate and thinking everything slowly. Turns out it is a cemetery park for Japanese, but I did not regret at all. The atmosphere is quiet calm even when in afternoon. The flowers, the park and everything inside is just like a complete harmony. Will revisit next time if I got time to learn about its history.

Curious, I went to visit the cemetery 🪦 park. It was spacious & serene. Nice place to walk around & read the panels near the gravestones of people who contributed in the past. The trees & plants are well-manicured. Good learning for me.

A small place where Japanese mostly soldiers who lost their lives during war were buried. Many tombs with descriptions of individuals buried.
It's a peaceful place.

Recommended to visit during morning or evening. Very hot when it's bright and sunny. If you go for photography, go in mid Mar or mid Sep for those colourful flowers.

Although I don't know much about the history of this place but it was here since when I visited here as a young boy.
Today, after my lunch at one of the coffee shop nearby, I decided to go and take a look. I was surprised by the number of visitors coming here, and they were having a great time there taking pictures of themselves with the surroundings. The flowers are blooming, remind me of Sakura flowers blooming this time April 2021 in Japan.

Quiet.Not much people.Well-Maintain.If im not wrong,there's someone to take care of the park. There's a prayer hall but you are not allowed to go in.Toilets are behind the prayer hall. There's a vending machine and also got cats too. In fact, got 2 and they both look exactly the same.1 will come near you but she dont like to be touched and the other one is scared of humans. Nice place to take photos too.They close at 7pm.

Very Serene peaceful cemetery. Japanese person buried here. Beautiful park with lovely simple tomb stones to mark out the dead people. The inventor of the mosquito coil is laid to rest over here too. Very successful in selling his mosquito repellent. Well worth the visit if cycling past this special location. Historical too

A truly hidden piece of history in Serangoon North area.

An old plantation that was converted into a cemetery has alot of history to be told if u dig up enough. Not literally dig up the graves ya, jz do ur own research via books, internet and what has been engraved. 😀

The past can never be be a disappointment but a learning piece of history for current or future generations to come. This place is something out of the ordinary. We chanced upon this place while looking for places to visit and this place deserves the respect of being one of the very well maintained cemeteries around.

On top of the area being super clean, do slow down and admire the stories, eulogy that this place has got to offer. Not a very big area, good for walking through while being at peace with the surroundings. For one, tranquility is definitely something u can feel.

And best part of all, it is insta-worthy BUT do make sure u give the place its due respect 1st ya..

Cheers.

The cemetery located within a built up residential area. There are lots of display boards & plaques in Japanese and in English which recount the interesting history of the place, the then Japanese community during the war and also some of the more renounced individuals buried at the cemetery. There are beautiful Bourganvilla arches, stone slab paths, shrubs, trees and seatings makes this well kept Japanese Cemetery Park a peaceful place.

Free place to checkout. Park closes in the evening, so go during opening hours. Lots of history to read about. Nice place to chill because it’s so peaceful. Great for taking a short walk. There's even a vending machine there if you're thirsty!

A place to meditate whilst paying respect for the departed. Excellent location for photography. The venue is well. Maintained and its quiet. So many foliage and flowers which is constantly kept on point.

Very peaceful cemetery set a beautifully kept park. The Japanese Cemetery is a very respectful commemoration to the members of the Japanese community throughout the history in Singapore. Some information is in English, obviously graves and most other signs are in Japanese. Just go armed with a full phone battery to take pictures and Google the fascinating history.

Well historical park. Can drop by to have a look and take photos.

Wish all the unseen beings can reincarnate to the proper realm . Metta.

The place is so full of history and really pretty! I came here for a school project and was so inspired by the place. It was really difficult to find the place and it was hot the day we went, but I think it was worth the long walk!

Nice and well maintained cemetery park… and interesting to learn some of the famous Japanese’ tombs here.

Peaceful walk among Japanese who lived in Singapore in the early days. Grounds are clean and well kept

Love it! Very tranquil and zen, never knew such a gem existed. Felt like I have been taken back to Japan.

Quiet place with flower arch :) seems like August is a good month to visit

The japanese cemetry park is very serene and has a calming effect when you enter. Rich in history and not crowded at all makes it even better to stroll around leisurely to relive some history dating back to the world War times.

Quiet Cemetery Park far from city side. Need to walk bit far from Kovan MRT station.
