Youth Olympic Park, Public park at Marina Bay, Singapore
Youth Olympic Park stretches along the Marina Bay waterfront with green spaces, sculptures, and recreational areas near the Helix Bridge entrance. The space features open lawns and artistic installations distributed throughout the grounds for visitors to explore.
Singapore established this park in 2010 to mark the first Youth Olympic Games, creating a permanent reminder of that international sporting event. The place connects the athletic spirit of that occasion with artistic expression from a generation of young creators.
Twenty-seven art pieces by young Singaporean artists make this the country's first dedicated art park, including an inscribed poem titled Lion Heart. The works reflect the creative voice of a new generation and invite visitors to engage with local artistic expression.
The park is free to visit and remains open during the day without any entry requirements. Most visitors come in the evening when lights highlight the artistic installations and interactive ground features become active.
The ground features a motion-sensitive hopscotch pattern that produces light effects when stepped upon, becoming especially striking after dark. This interactive installation shows how play and art merge, inviting visitors of all ages to participate.
