“East side, best side” just got even truer with Tampines Boulevard Park – the latest green space for Easties to explore. While the west section welcomed visitors in September last year, the park is now bigger and better with the newly completed east section – perfect for unwinding, getting active, and soaking up the sun.
Surrounded by new and upcoming HDB estates, Tampines Boulevard Park is set to become a go-to family-friendly hangout. Plus, with Tampines Eco Green, Sun Plaza Park, and the Tampines Park Connector nearby, Easties now have even more choices to chill outdoors.
The park itself is split into 2 sections which are divided by Tampines Avenue 12, so whether you’re closer to one side or the other, there’s always a green escape a stone’s throw away.
Getting to Tampines Boulevard Park is pretty straightforward. The park runs along Tampines Avenue 12, and there’s a bus stop – Bef Blk 631B – that’s served by Bus 15, 129, 298, 299, 969, and 969A. You could also get in via Tampines Street 62, and it’s a short walk away from the upcoming Tampines North MRT and Bus Interchange on Tampines Avenue 11.
If you’re driving to the park with your furry companion, the nearest carpark for the east section is closest to Block 634 and 629 along Tampines North Drive 2, while the nearest carpark for the west section is at Block 623C Tampines Avenue 12.
Located in the east section of the park, the 1,200 sqm fenced dog run is spacious enough for furry friends to sprint, sniff around, and socialise sans leash. There are gentle slopes that add to the fun so your doggo can get a good workout while you relax on the sidelines.
The dog run recently underwent some improvement works from January-March 2026.

If you’ve got active kiddos, they will have a blast at the nature playgarden. It comes complete with a swing set, balancing log beams, and stepping stumps – all designed for little adventurers to test their agility.
Tampines Boulevard Park knows the drill – there’s no park without a fitness corner. Head to the outdoor exercise area, where everyone from young to old can get in on the action.
The nature playgarden in the west section is just as exciting, featuring a dragon head slide.

You’ll also find a sand play area with swings and a rock wall inspired by Tampines’ old sand quarries. It’s a great playground for sensory play, where kids can dig, climb, and explore in a natural setting.
There’s a 60m children’s cycling track that’s just right for little ones to practise their cycling skills too. With its bright tri-colour design, the track makes it fun for kids to ride around while learning the ropes of bike safety. You’ll also spot yellow signs reminding them to wear their helmets – instilling good habits from the get-go.
Tucked within the nature playgarden in the west section, the elevated garden is a haven for nature lovers, with plants designed to attract wildlife.
Keep your eyes peeled for the Rattleweed – a shrub with bright yellow flowers and fruit pods that make a sound when shaken, attracting both butterflies and bees. You might also spot the Pink Mempat, a native tree with pretty pink flowers that look like cherry blossoms – no need to plan a trip to Japan for sakura if you’re on a budget or haven’t got it in the cards.
The outdoor fitness area comes with barrier-free exercise equipment, so everyone – regardless of physical ability – can get moving and stay active.
Lush green spaces, family-friendly play areas, and even a spot for your furry friends – Tampines Boulevard Park is yet another reason why Easties have it good. Time to gather the fam, lace up your sneakers, and explore what it has to offer.
