Gardens by the Bay, Singapore

If you like (man-made) nature and all things growing, go to Gardens by the Bay.

It is a massive 101 hectares park next to Marina Bay Sands, built with the intention of becoming one of Singapore’s national icons.

There is no park entrance fee. However entry into the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest conservatories requires payment. I recommend that you cough up the dough to visit, they are quite impressive.

If you are a plants and flower person, you may end up spending the entire day in these two conservatories. The air-conditioning is running at all times and there are many things to see!

Just one thing: please stop throwing coins into whatever ponds or amethyst rocks in hope of good luck. I am sorry to be the one telling you this, but it doesn’t work that way. And you’re quite possibly ruining the waters and crystals with your dirty nickels.

Tourist responsibly.

You’re right, I’m not a flower kind of person. Look, flower! Nom.

    Ah, yes. I went there with my kids a couple months ago. They liked it. I’m not much of a plant or flower person. But I gotta admit, something about that place seems so, I don’t know, relaxing. Must be the effect of nature. It makes me want to go back..
