the built up area has quite few zeny looking areas

a nice view from the pool side restaurant area

some of the few architecturally interesting areas

beyond the ridges lies the "Hort" part of Hort park, thats ... just before the million dollar lawn...

I just have to get this nice closeup

the 1st floor houses a multi purpose function area surrounded by nice cushy grass

grass too cushy I guess...

signs pointing to more areas of interests

here are few of the art pieces lined along the park paths

hort park also allows you to appreciate shiny stuffs sticking from the ground

besides bamboo forests...

such as sunbathing cradles out of nowhere

but everything here is not a zany and whacky...

and nice touches of neat modern architecture

did I mention neat?

out of place potted plants

plants growing out of almost anything

they even have plants mutated into children playgrounds as well!

a scarecrow with not crows to scare

there are many other nice oddities on display too...

and invisible people having wine!

and pink bridges out of nowhere

theres a proper rest area and snack area in the park as well

the park also snakes along side contrasting industrial areas

the greenhouse area

who knows what those evil botanists are brewing in here, killer tomatoes?

I may be your friendly greenhouse, but am ain't green!

hi I am a sign and I tell no lies, succumb to my directions!

and we are off to the treetop canopies!

trees+top= need for relief meaning more uphills!

few of the winding meandering paths in the area

the 1st glimpse of our steel trees

this part of the trek sees us back into some small secondary forests again

though we could really appreciate the shade of a primary forest!

few of the omg! part of the trip! (while I can hear you hillwork runners go yay!)

once upon reaching the top of the park

you will see this the start of the tree top canopy walk

it's like one of the mangrove trail walks, only like wayyy much higher

offering rather interesting but otherwise tree-obscured views

the canopy walk is not as popular due to it being quite out of place in the connector route

thats all for that boring walk, our next stop will be Kent Ridge Park!

our journey sees us through more mini forests

before arriving at...

Kent Ridge (park) itself!

the land of signboards, carparks and decommissioned tanks!

facing the sea, the place is very airy and windy

hurray for our west coastline being turned into a container port!

the place also spots an offroad trail for mountain bikers and trekkers

though I won't label it as a Bt Timah alternative

despite it's proximity to Hort park, the place is only frequented only by regulars or people living around the area
