    I visited here for a morning walk. The park is quite large, so you'll definitely work up a sweat walking around. I highly recommend bringing a water bottle. It's full of nature, and spotting a wild chicken was a fun experience.

    A great park in the middle of the city. It's an ideal place to come for a lunch brake, a walk with kids, or just to relax. Singapore parks will be most remembered when I get back home.
