Singapore - Botanic Garden

Singapore has a lot of parks, nature reserves, tree-lined roads and other greenery, all part of a vision established way back in 1963 to make it a “Garden City.” More recently the goal has been updated to transform Singapore from a “Garden City” to a “City in a Garden.” They are long way from achieving that, but it’s certainly a worthy goal. One huge green space is the city’s botanic garden, in which we spent the better part of a day.

Even the construction barriers are attractive and blend right in.
