Garden by the Bay

Forest in the Clouds

Singapore has a magnificent conservation park called Gardens by the Bay. There are two pods, built like green houses, but about 6 stories high.

It is a twenty minute walk from the hotel. The conservation domes are air conditioned and humidity controlled. That makes them an ideal spot to spend the early afternoon.

The entrance is at the water falls. I recommend taking the elevator up to the top and viewing from the walkways at the top first.

As we wandered down through the inside of the mountain, we saw other exhibits like these:
