Lakeside Garden
The largest of the three thematic gardens — wetlands, forest trails and open lawns built around the ABC Waters channel, with play, sport and community spaces woven through.
Last updated on 13 September 2026
Lakeside Garden is the 60-hectare western section of the Jurong Lake Gardens. Visitors can now enjoy the first phase of Singapore’s third national gardens, and the first national gardens in the heartlands. Lakeside Garden is centred around the themes of nature, play and the community.
The garden has been developed sensitively to retain the serenity of the area whilst incorporating spaces for the community and recreational needs. Capitalising on its waterfront location, Lakeside Garden has spaces for all to enjoy amid nature, greenery and lakeside views. Visitors will have many opportunities to get close to nature in Lakeside Garden.
In line with the car-lite strategy of Jurong Lake District, the public is encouraged to walk, cycle or take public transport to the Gardens.
