Water Playground Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park Singapore Nature Vlog 2022

Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park (formerly known as Bishan Park) is a major park in Singapore, located in the popular heartland of Bishan. Serving the residents of Bishan, Yishun and Ang Mo Kio, the park sits entirely within Bishan, running along the Ang Mo Kio-Bishan boundary line, which is situated at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1. In the middle of the park lies the Kallang River, which runs through it in the form of a flat riverbed.
Under the PUB’s Active, Beautiful and Clean Waters (ABC) Programme, the old concrete canal has been de-concretised and naturalised into a beautiful 3 km meandering river with lush banks of wildflowers. Creatures such as the Common Bluetail damselfly and Common Scarlet dragonfly now frequent the riverbank, adding to the biodiversity of the park. The river channel itself was designed based on a flood plain concept and is linked to a network of drains in the city. During dry weather, the flow of water is confined to a narrow stream in the middle of the river. In the event of a storm, the adjacent park area doubles up as a conveyance channel, carrying the rainwater downstream gradually.
Aside from its unique waterways, the park features lush greenery, Pond Gardens and River Plains, making it a popular choice with nearby residents for recreational activities.
With open lawns and gently sloping grassy banks along either side of the river, families can have picnics and gatherings while enjoying the beauty and tranquillity of the waterways. The 62-hectare park is also home to a wide array of interesting fauna and flora, making it ideal for nature lovers. Fitness enthusiasts can cycle or jog along the well-maintained tracks, accompanied by the soothing babble of the river.
Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park Water Playground is unique as far as water playgrounds go. While most water playgrounds feature jets of water, splashing buckets and slippery slides, Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park Water Playground is designed with a different purpose in mind.
