Gardens By The Bay

I am lucky enough to get the chance to see one of Singapore's phenomenal additions to its diverse landscape. Aside from old and refurbished architecture, Singapore gives a strong adherence to the bounty of nature and for its conservation thus the construction of the Gardens By The Bay.

The immense location was formerly a flat land with a sparsity of trees here and there. This time, the entire place was teeming with environmentally friendly constructions and a huge treasury of plants from many continents.

Allow me to show you through photographs the vastness and the eloquence of its built.

  4. Eto ang one thing na maganda about Singapore. Kahit maliit lang sila na bansa, minamaximize talaga nila ang bawat space na meron sila. Nagawa nilang moderno ang lugar na hindi nako-compromise si mother nature. Marami pa rin greens sa city.

  7. @ Ms. Lili,
    I was hoping I get to see very nice, no, great things in the Philippines but I guess we have no budget for such things. The Super Trees are actually an advantage for a country like us.

    Iba kasi kapag may planning at tsaka masyado na kasi tayong marami in terms of population. But I am still hoping for a great Philippines.

  13. Hi Cristine,

    I didn't really buy much because I didn't have the time to go around. However, having lunch and snacks at different places was horrendously expensive leaving me penniless in the end.
