Singapore's urban life can leave one yearning for nature and when that's the case head out on a family trek through the swamps of Singapore's first ASEAN Heritage Park. The swamp includes an extensive mangrove forest filled with rich flora and fauna. Let the kids point out birds and mammals in their natural habitat as they easily traverse the kid-friendly boardwalks and paved trails.

It is Singapore's largest freshwater farmlands complete with its 170 species of birds, 54 types of butterflies and 33 different kinds of dragonflies. Don't forget to climb to the top of the Raptor Tower, a 10.65 meter tall wooden structure that offers a panoramic view of the surrounding marshes.
