The largest park in the north side of Singapore, Admiralty Park is situated on a hill, with the Sungei Cina river running through it. The park houses the largest natural area with 26 slides, including Singapore’s first-ever family and longest open slide. It reopened in October 2017 after two years of redevelopment.

Ready, Set, Roll: At 34m long, the longest outdoor slide in Singapore is not one to be missed. Seen here, Alfiah (left) and Dania are enjoying themselves as they trundle down the curved roller slides. For those who are fearful of heights or prefer something more easy-going, this pair of roller slides have a gentler slope. (PHOTO: Wee Wen Xin)

Never Too Old: Many often associate the playground to being a place for children. 
However, Admiralty Park is set to break all the stereotypes. Regardless of age, it is a place that both the old and young alike can enjoy. It is a  wonderful place to enjoy the great outdoors, at the same time, have fun, or simply to unwind and destress. (PHOTO: Alfiah Rahman)
