There are already plenty of reasons to visit Gardens by the Bay – from the eventful Flower Dome, which hosts floral showcases like the annual sakura display, to the Enchanted Forest-themed Starbucks. Now, there's a brand-new reason to make the trip: a sprawling outdoor zone packed with kid-friendly fun – and it’s completely free to enter.

The PropNex Family Zone is a 2,000-square-metre outdoor playground designed for maximum fun and adventure for kids and kidults. Scale the climbing towers, have a go on the swings, and hop across installations shaped like kueh lapis and ang ku kueh. You’ll also notice bunny-themed elements here – a nod to the Families for Life mascot, Becky Bunny.
