Can I fish or cycle at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park?
NParks says not to line-fish in the river, Dragonfly Pond or Lotus Pond, and it discourages cycling on the bridges. Wheel your bike across them and ride the paths, then lock it at one of the 48 bicycle lots. The park is open 24 hours and covers 62 hectares over 3km, so there's room to stretch out.

What wildlife can I see at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park?
NParks counts over 90 species of birds in the park, including the Purple Heron, White-breasted Waterhen and Sunda Pygmy Woodpecker. The Butterfly Habitat has more than 30 species of butterflies, and the slow-moving naturalised river suits dragonflies. We'd climb Recycle Hill first, which gives a clear view of the whole park.
