tong ren rd?
On a serious note,
the aquarium in pu dong,
the bug and insect world in pu dong,
the zoo,
science and tech museum,
century park,
toms world in super brand mall,
O'malleys used to have a play park in their garden, not sure about now
they are all good family days out, except possibly the zoo |
