Temasek Polytechnic Adventure Club is again, organising a Night Cycling trip in Pulau Ubin. Thats why yesterday we are there to recce the place. This time round, it is with a new batch of enthusiastic and adventurous people. This year, what is different from the previous year is that we are going to the newly built Ketam Mountain Bike Park. And there is a super duper fun and exciting mountain bike trail within its heart which is called the Dirt Skills Park. To tell you, it is the best things that I had done in Pulau Ubin man. There are so many steep up and down slop which make it so much thrilling and exciting.

The yellow building is the German Girl Shrine.
"Behind a secluded timber temple located at the northern coast of Pulau Ubin, there is a tragic urban legend unknown even to many Singaporeans. Strangely, inside the temple, you will find two physical objects as the centerpiece of worship. One is a beautiful porcelain urn placed on top of the altar, the other is merely a piece of rock of a football size on the floor under the altar. These two artifacts closely associate with a deceased white German girl who was mystified as a local deity in almost ninety years ago.
In August 1914, at the outbreak of WW1, British troops at night came to raid and prosecute a German merchant who owned a coffee plantation business and lived in Pulau Ubin. A young German girl who is the daughter of the merchant became frightened and ran away. Because it was dark at night, the girl fell down a cliff and was killed when her head hit on a piece of rock.
The body of the innocent girl, however, was discovered by the local laborers on the next days, covered by termites. Out of kindness, they did more than just giving her a proper burial; a Kramat (a worship shrine) was built for her on the hilltop. Years later, due to the development of quarry excavation on the hill, her remain was exhumed and transferred to another temple at the northern coast. What belonged to her, the remains that were put in a porcelain pot and this 'rock of destiny' were moved too. The villagers continued to visit the new temple to pray.
Through the passage of time, the shrine has grown into a popular place of spirit worship for the villagers because of the allegedly efficacious supernatural power of the German girl. Many worshippers especially the gamblers had their wishes granted. One day, the popularity attracted a wicked thief who stole her bones together with the porcelain urn away.
Nowadays, a replacement but empty urn and the rock of destiny can be found in the temple as the icons of worship.
