Thus, each precinct gets equal access to the immediate amenities as well as the Central Park that is situated at the heart of the enclave.
The Central Park, which takes 10% of the total development land, is divided into two main parks named Eastlake Park and Westlake Park. A warm and inviting environment is created by the wide variety of native and tropical tree species that can be found in and around the park, creating a serene environment to walk, jog or cycle within the neighbourhood. Moreover, a seven-km trail in the Central Park has been designed specifically for walking, jogging and biking. Families in Tropicana Aman can also enjoy a safe and aesthetic environment as three-metre-wide designated pedestrian pathways are built separate and clearly delineated from vehicular roads.
Fronting the Eastlake Park is the Residents' Clubhouse, which is surrounded by a unique strip of greenscape. It houses numerous leisure and sport facilities for residents to sweat, chill and relax. With 2,400 trees, 39 benches, 17 pavilions and 10 link bridges, the Central Park provides the perfect setting for one to truly appreciate Mother Nature's embrace.
