Jurong Town Singapore
Jurong Town, west of the city center, is a huge industrial and housing area that is the powerhouse of Singapore's economy. This might seem an unlikely spot for a number of Singapore's tourist attractions but it is home to the Haw Par Villa (an incredibly tacky Chinese mythological theme park), the beautifully landscaped Jurong Bird Park , Chinese Garden and the hands-on Singapore Discovery CenterOne of Asia Pacific's largest and most impressive bird parks, Jurong Bird Park offers visitors an experience that is entertaining, as well as educational. Its beautifully landscaped 20-hectare area is home to over 8,000 birds from 600 species, all displayed in huge enclosures. Jurong Bird Park has one of the largest hornbill collections in the world. The Southeast Asian Birds Aviary houses more than 100 species of birds from the equatorial jungles of Southeast Asia in its 24 individual aviaries and a main walk-in aviary.
The Chinese Gardens, along with its neighbor the Japanese Gardens, are one of our favorite getaway places when we want to get out of Singapore's modern city center. The gardens are easy to get to and are very relaxing.
The world-acclaimed Singapore Discovery Center is one of the country's biggest achievements through high-tech and interactive exhibits. Visitors can be dazzled by the technology, large format two- and three-dimensional shows, robotics and the highly entertaining displays. It is an experience for the young and old to enjoy, relive and explore.
