A massive makeover is about to happen in Mandai

It will be home to two new wildlife parks.

Singapore will rejuvenate the Mandai nature precinct and expand its offerings to include two new wildlife parks, an indoor nature-themed education centre, eco-sensitive accommodation options and other public spaces.

Mandai Safari Park Holdings revealed that the new attractions will be ready by 2020. Singapore Zoo, Night Safari and River Safari will be joined by two new cousins, the new Bird Park and the Rainforest Park, creating an integrated nature and wildlife experience for visitors.

The new Bird Park will house one of the world’s largest collections of birds, while the Rainforest Park will allow visitors to experience the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia.

Situated outside of the Central Catchment Nature Reserve, the two new wildlife parks will be developed on previously occupied and impacted land, and stringent environmental protection measures will be put in place to minimise any potential impact on the flora and fauna in the area.
