Before you go

Can I walk around Jurong Lake Gardens at night?

The Lakeside Garden grounds are open 24 hours, and the Chinese and Japanese Gardens from 5.30am to midnight. NParks asks you not to enter the Lakeside Grasslands or Neram Streams after dark, because those nature areas are not lit. Keep to the lit paths once the sun is down.
