Hort Park 2 - Sculptures

Some of the sculptures I saw in Hort Park. There are more but there are too many people there for me to spot more.



This must be the tin man in the story of Wizard of Oz

And I found the lion but I missed the scarecrow and dorothy, too many people in the park for me to spot them.

My World Tuesday - Hort Park 1

Today, I will begin my series of posting of plants and flowers in Hort Park.

Some of the landscapes I saw inside Hort Park.

Oh I love these dragons.

Award winning designs, I love how they arranged the flowers at the side to make a pattern just like flower arrangements.



Not sure if this is a swimming pool or just for display, I could not see any sign beside it or I might have missed seeing any description of it.

Please visit "That's my World" for other parts of the world.

Hort Park - Playgrounds

At the Hort Park, besides being a park filled with many beautiful flowers and plants, there are space for a playground for the kids.

The kids have a wonderful time playing with them.

Recycled Shopping Bags

After visiting the Clean and Green Campaign, we were given goodie bags to take home with us. The bags are made from recycled materials. Can you recognized them? Some are banners of advertisements for products. I chose a nice blue bag, I think it is made from a used Pepsi banner.

Hort Park - Clean and Clean Campaign Exhibition

At the clean and green campaign at Hort Park, there's an exhibition of the then and now of Singapore.

It brought back memories of the time when I was younger, living in a not so clean environment. But now everything is so organised and clean.



An example of the street hawker back then in the 60s, the utensils they used are so old and discoloured but now hawkers will be fined or suspended if their stalls are unclean.



Now the sweeper's job are easier and high tech, they are help with machines and make it more attractive so that people will want to work as sweeper.
