The Wayang Stage on Pulau Ubin is located across the "Tua Pek Gong Temple" near the heart of the island's village. The stage was originally a simple wooden structure with an attap roof but it was rebuilt in 1939 and again in 1977 to its present form. Wayang performances have been staged on Pulau Ubin before 1936 and continue to be performed on three occasions throughout the year. These occasions include the birthday of Tua Pek Gong during the 4th month of the lunar calendar, the Hungry Ghost Festival and Vesak Day. In addition to wayang performances, the stage was used as a temporary classroom for students from the "Bin Kiang School" during the 1960s as well as election rallies.

A Pulau Ubin Quarry

Pulau Ubin was one of two main granite quarrying sites in Singapore and once accounted for approximately 25% of the granite reserves in Singapore. The mining of granite on the island started in the middle of 1840s and by the 1850s, government quarries were established and convicts were deployed to mine granite for the construction of historically important structures. These structures include Horsburgh Lighthouse on Pedra Branca (1851), Fort Canning (1858), Raffles Lighthouse (1855), Singapore Harbour (1913), the Causeway (1923), Fort Canning Reservoir (1926) etc. By 1934, there were at least ten operating quarries on Pulau Ubin. The mining of granite ceased in the 1960s and the last quarry on Pulau Ubin closed in 1999. Since then, all defunct quarries have eventually become scenic lakes.
