Taman Gajah Tunggal is an urban park in Tangerang uniquely themed around recycled tyre materials. The site features extensive infrastructure constructed from repurposed tyres, including seating, decorative sculptures, and children's playground equipment. The park is situated along the banks of the Cisadane River, offering riverfront views and walking paths. Visitors can access battery-powered car rentals for children to traverse the park grounds. Extensive use of rubber-based materials distinguishes the aesthetic and play structures from traditional public parks. It functions as a community space primarily serving local residents and families. The park incorporates landscaping elements that integrate the industrial recycled components into a green environment.
The large decorative sculptures made entirely from stacked, painted tyres near the park entrance.
