Open spaces, breeze and wind, greenery and waterfront terraces.

 

Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.

Kite-flying enthusiasts in Singapore are spoilt for choice – Marina Barrage, Bishan Ang Mo Kio Park, East Coast Park, Punggol Waterway Park, Sembawang Park, West Coast Park … Where to fly kites in Singapore.

 

Fabulous cityscapes and playgrounds form the backdrops for this heart-soaring sport, beloved of all ages.

 

Caveat : Kite flying is permitted in any vacant field outside 5km of the airport, with a height restriction of 60 metres.

 

That said, what better way than this to spend time with the kids ?
