West Plains @ Bukit Batok is one of many “West _” estates in Bukit Batok, which include West Rock, West Terra and the list goes on. After spending some time visiting the many “Wests”, we found the West Plains playground to be the best. However, we also highlight of the other play spots around the Hong Kah North neighbourhood where kids and families can have some fun.
West Plains Playground
West Plains @ Bukit Batok is located next to Le Quest shopping mall. Amongst the various housing apartment blocks, the West Plains playground consists of two play sections – one with high elements and another with lower play equipment.
