a view you never thought you can get in central Singapore... (now is that a starbucks joint behind that tree?)
some of the trekkers on a mission...
some more stainless steel structure porn
the whole structure floor is mainly made from triangular gratings with holes large enough to allow leaves/water to fall through,
some of the various cool night lighters along the floor
this is the "donate a tree" area of the walk, which showcases few of the longer straight stretches of the walk
one part of the route even passes by the old Depot road colonial bungalows, 1up for privacy!
that dome sites near a depot road slip road
yup depot road alrighy!
a full view of the few high sections of the platform
the height is cool, but not scary enough!
the forest walk ends at the interlinking Alexandra arch bridge
some nice shots of the arch
reflecting in the sun...
view of pasir panjang road from the arch
I spy what lies on the other end?
more of the typhoon-shewed welcoming signboards, Hort park is next!
prior to Hort park is a small little public garden
a very little stand alone garden, which I think is quite out of place thou...
here we are at the Horts!
a park with it's own driveway and address cool!
the hort in "hortpark" stands for horticulture, which derives from the Latin hortus meaning a 'garden' space... ok....
we love our hort-ners!
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!
