Tampines is a planning area and residential town located in the East Region of Singapore. Measuring at approximately 20.89 km2, Tampines ranks the 9th, 3rd & 15th in terms of size, population & density respectively. It is the third largest town in Singapore by area and also is the third most populated new town, following Bedok and Jurong West. It is the regional centre for the East Region. The town is so named because in the 1900s a large forest of ironwood trees, or tempinis, were there.

Tampines is located at the southern part of Singapore's east region and is made out of 1 subzone, Simei. The planning area is bordered by Bedok and Paya Lebar to the west, Pasir Ris to the north, Changi to the east and the Singapore Straits to the south.
