One of Singapore’s largest and oldest towns, Clementi has received a facelift in recent years, resulting in an interesting blend of old and new places to explore.
Named after Sir Cecil Clementi Smith, Governor of the Straits Settlements from 1887 to 1893, this town is a bustling hive of activity that draws people from all walks of life. Spend a weekend with your family or friends to unearth these finds in Clementi.
Clementi has many fun options for families, such as the giant Adventure Playground at West Coast Park.
5. Unique family funlands
Thanks to recent developments, Clementi is now a treasure trove of fun for families. The area boasts a number of exciting play areas for kids, including a ship-themed playground where you can live out your pirate life with your little mateys.
Another treat for the whole family is Firefly Park, an environmentally-friendly playground. The park has two fitness corners — one for adults, and another for seniors. It also has two playgrounds for children aged two to five years and children aged six to 12 years.
For ultimate family fun, head over to the Adventure Playground at West Coast Park, which has seven play areas for children of different ages, making it one of Singapore’s largest playgrounds.
