• The Chinese Garden is located in Jurong in the western part of Singapore. The famous tourist attraction is situated between the Jurong East and Chinese Garden MRT stations. It was built on Jurong Lake and is surrounded by water.
• Completed in 1975, the 13.5-hectare Chinese Garden was designed by Professor Yu Yuen-Chen, a Taiwanese architect. The garden's design was modelled on the imperial architecture style and landscape design of China’s Northern Song Dynasty, besides incorporating the unique architectural features of traditional Chinese pavilions, towers and pagodas.
• In March 2016, the National Parks Board (NParks) took over the management of the Chinese Garden from the Jurong Town Corporation.
• The Chinese Garden is temporarily closed for redevelopment from 31 May 2019 until 2021. Apart from preserving some of the original structures, new attractions and sceneries will also be added.
• Under the Jurong Lake District’s development blueprint, the Chinese Garden will become part of the Jurong Lake Garden.

Residents who often visit the Chinese Garden will be familiar with the white and orange cat that resides in that area. Elderly residents will stop to chat with it on their morning walks, while children visiting the park on the weekends will also play with it. (Lianhe Zaobao, 10/06/2019)
