  • Occupying an area of 50 hectares, Thomson Nature Park is Singapore’s newest nature park. The park is adjacent to Central Catchment Reserve and it occupies the area between old Upper Thomson and Upper Thomson road.

    What is unique about the park is that it was formerly the site of a Hainan village. When the occupants of the village vacated the space in the 1980s, nature took over, and the area is now heavily forested. The fauna found here include the Sunda pangolin, the sambar deer, and the leopard cat. The rare Raffles' banded langur can also be spotted here.
