Flanked by housing apartment blocks, Buangkok Square Park is a green park with a water park and dry village-themed playground that offers a fun spot for kids to enjoy playtime in the neighbourhood.
Buangkok Square Park Water Park
Newly opened in March 2024, the Buangkok Square Park Water Park is a community water playground that is free for all to enjoy.
Officially know as the Integrated Aquatic Theme Satellite Park, the Buangkok Square Park Water Park is a gated area where kids can enjoy splashing about to cool off from the heat.
The water playground is made up of two areas, a splash pad for children between 6 to 12 years old and a water play area for children between 2 and 5 years old.
Splash Pad at Buangkok Square Park
The splash pad area features a large spray fountain with a dragonfly at the top. This sprays out water to the padded floor below.
A spray jet tunnel invites kids to run on through in glee.
There are numerous water jets, fountains and spray jets located within the Buangkok Square Park Water Park. Some of these pop out from the water the ground. Another fountain sprouts up from a large purple sphere.
At another corner of the Buangkok Square splash pad, there is a transparent water bucket. You can watch the water slowly fill up before it tips over and splashes the water down to kids who are eagerly waiting below.
Water Play Area at Buangkok Square Park
Younger kids can also enjoy some fun at the water play area section of the Buangkok Square Park Water Park.
In addition to little fountains, there are is also a water channel with water wheels at this section of the water park, similar to the one found at Heights Park’s water park.
Kids can play in the channel and even imagine that they are sailing their toys down the meandering passageway of the water play area.
Operating Hours of the Buangkok Square Park Water Park
The water playground occupies what was previously the park’s communal lawn.
The Buangkok Square Park Water Park is open from 8 am to 8 pm. Two gates lead into the water play area.
In addition, there are two open showering facilities within the water park for kids to have a rinse down after playing.
Buangkok Square Park Playground: A Village-themed Play Area
While at the park, you can also choose to have fun at the Buangkok Square Park Playground. It is made up of two separate play areas, one for older children and one for younger ones.
Kampung Playground
The main playground is themed to look like a village set on stilts. Alternatively, it can be thought of as a kelong-themed playground. It is located at the top of a terraced mound.
Four huts sit elevated off the ground, suspended in the air by wooden poles. These rust-coloured and orange-coloured huts are interconnected by netted bridges.
These walkways provide a means to move from one end of the village playground to the other. We wonder if this playground is a reference to the kampung at Lorong Buangkok.
Climbing elements serve as additional ways to enter and exit the different houses.
A grey slide at one end of the chain of huts acts as a reward for traversing through the Buangkok Square Park playground.
Village Playground for Younger Kids
A short distance away from the main playground is another village-themed play area for younger children. This consists of a cluster of three huts built on top of a low mound.
These low huts are connected by a cargo net which kids can climb about on.
A slide is connected to one of the huts while another burrows through the mound. Low and wide swings encircle the village playground.
Around Buangkok Square Park
There are also fitness stations and corners to sit down and enjoy the outdoors.
Another interesting feature of Buangkok Square Park are the animal sculptures in the park.
At this corner of the park, there are a handful of animal sculptures.
This includes a hippo sculpture, not as elaborate as the ones found in Woodlands, but unusual nonetheless.
Buangkok Square Park is located between Buangkok Crescent and Buangkok Link, just beside Buangkok Square Mall.
Parking is available at Buangkok Square Mall.
