Origami Playground
The origami playground is so-called because of it looks like a sheet of art paper which has been folded into a crumpled rock sculpture. With sharp lines that look like paper folds, the Jurong West origami playground is designed for climbing.
Approaching it closer, you will find colourful climbing handholds at dotting the walls of the play structure.
Crawling Tunnel with Bubble
Besides the Origami Rock play structure, there are also other sets of play equipment at the Jurong West Park playground, in front of Block 826. For younger kids who may be afraid to climb up the origami playground, there is a low mound with clear plastic bubbles on top. Young (and small sized) kids can crawl into the tunnel under the mound and pop their heads in the bubble for a look around.
