 The Cheng Ho at Kusu Island by allikat
A tiny island, Kusu is said to have been formed by a giant sea turtle which transformed itself into the island to save 2 shipwrecked mariners from a watery end! It is home only to the caretakers of the holy Chinese temple here.
Access is forbidden during the Kusu festival, and photos of the shrines within the temple are naturally not allowed.
The boat, the Cheng Ho, has a large air conditioned restaurant area, and plenty of outdoor deck areas from which to enjoy the water and the views. Although it is a modern boat, it is an exact replica of the Da Fu. a Ming Dynasty imperial vessel. It is predominantly yellow, which is the Chinese Imperial colour, and is heavily decorated with imperial emblems - the Dragon (the sign of the emperor) and the Phoenix (the sign of the empress).

 Kusu Island by kentishgirl
There are hundreds of turtles all swarming all over the place!
The beach here is also gorgeous as is the temple.
All in all, a relaxing day outside of the city.* Leave a Comment

This island is about 45 minutes away by boat from Singapore's Clifford Pier.
This tranquil island is inhabited only by the caretakers of the Chinese temple.
The temple dominates the island. You may give offerings to the Gods. There is also a wishing well, not to mention a turtle pond. By the way, KUSU means TURTLE. Leave a Comment

You can choose from Morning Glory Cruise (S$23), High Tea Cruise (from 3 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. S$29) or Dinner Cruise (S$49) into a Cheng Ho, a replica of a Imperial vessel of the Ming Dynasty, is a beautiful ship colorful, with dragons, very traditional but comfortable. We stopped at The Kusu Island, inhabited with only an ancient Chinese temple and a couple of chairs into small cabins facing the ocean where you could relax for a moment or take a picture in the sculptures of turtles and quickly back to the boat, take some tea and cookies and return to the channel until Clifford Pier.
