Cloud Forest and Super Tree Grove - Holiday Post #6 - Singapore #6


Well, we are still visiting Singapore via my blog!  There are two domes in the Gardens by the Bay - the  Flower Dome which I posted about here and the Cloud Forest.  There is also the Super Tree Grove but I only have photos of that from a distance as I just ran out of time (shopping on Orchard Road was calling!)

The Cloud Forest was quite different to the Flower Dome.  When you enter the first thing you see is a giant waterfall.




This dome, too, is filled with the most gorgeous flowers and other plants and some quirky things, too, like the moss-covered car.


































Here is some pics  of the Super Tree Grove from a distance.  They are just enormous.  The tallest one, in the centre, apparently has a revolving restaurant - I am sure it would be a marvellous experience - maybe on our next trip to Singapore - lol!





I hope that you have enjoyed the Cloud Forest and the Super Trees.

hugs,

Gardens by the Bay - Holiday Post #5 - Singapore #5

You wonderful blogging friends keep telling me that you are enjoying my holiday posts and to keep on with them - you are all so kind.  I am really enjoying sharing my trip with you, it allows me to relive it.  Although as I am still "in" Singapore, with still quite  a lot to share it is still going to be a few weeks before I am done.

Today, I wanted to show you the amazing Gardens by the Bay, we wandered through parts of the gardens to visit the Flower Dome and the Cloud Forest but unfortunately we ran out of time before we could visit the SuperTree Grove close up.

The general part of the gardens is worth seeing in itself.
















Then we reached the Flower Dome - and it was full of roses, roses and more roses.  They had a special display on called "The war of the Roses"  - just right for a historian like me!




















Oh dear, I have so many Flower Dome photos - I will have to show you the Cloud Forest and the Super Trees (from a distance) in my next post.

I hope that you like the roses as much as I did.

hugs,
