NParks completes redevelopment of Jurong Lake Gardens

This was opened along with the restoration of Chinese and Japanese gardens. 

The National Parks Board (NParks) has reopened the restored Chinese and Japanese gardens after about 5 years of restoration works, marking the completion of the development of Jurong Lake Gardens.

The Chinese and Japanese gardens, together with Lakeside garden, make up the 90-hectare space.

Restoration works began in 2019 with the goal of enhancing the two gardens whilst preserving their natural ambience and distinctive cultural character.

Familiar landmarks such as the Grand Arch, Cloud Pagoda, Twin Pagoda, Bonsai Garden, Stoneboat and Tea Pavilion have been retained.

New amenities include the Jurong Lake Gardens Gallery and Bonsai Gallery; as well as the Cascading Creek, Water Wall Court, and Harvest Moon Terrace.

The Japanese garden, meanwhile, now has the new Water Lily Garden and the Sunken Garden.  

To commemorate the gardens' reopening, Lights by the Lake will be held at the gardens between 8 to 22 September.

Singapore Post Limited (SingPost) will also launch the Jurong Lake Gardens stamp series. The public can purchase the stamp series at the General Post Office, all philatelic stores, and online.
