About the Event
Hardness: 0.5 star.... Join us to discover the only natural hot spring on mainland Singapore! History: It was reported that the spring was discovered by a Municipal ranger W.A.B. Goodall in late 1908 by a Chinese businessman Seah Eng Keong. He saw a business opportunity in the discovery and quickly set up the Singapore Natural Mineral Hot Springs Company (the name was later changed to Singapore Hot Springs Limited) after tests proved that the water was safe for consumption. A factory was built near the hot spring in 1909 to bottle the water and sell it under the brand “Zombun”. Fraser and Neave Limited (F&N) later took over the Singapore Hot Spring Limited in 1921 and marketed their new branding as “Zom” and “Vichy Water”. Because of its uniqueness, the area and the factory were later advertised as a tourist spot and opened to the public. During weekends, the area usually gets crowded due to rumours that water from the hot spring was able to treat several skin diseases as well as rheumatism and arthritis.
