Singapore Botanic Garden - Beautiful Orchids
Really love taking photos of these orchids in Singapore Botanic Garden. They are really so beautiful and make me so cheerful.
This is our national flower. Vanda Miss Joaquim.
Dont really know the rest of the names of the orchids.
My favourite colour, purple. These orchids really have a place in my heart.
Looked like a girl dancing with her skirt swirling round and round.

My World Tuesday - Singapore Botanic Garden - Sculptures
Spotted more sculptures during this trip to Singapore Botanic Garden.
Near the symphony Lake in Singapore Botanic Garden, there was this sculpture of Statue of Frederick Chopin.
This work of art is created by Polish sculptor Karol Badyna.
The enscription, on a page at foot of Chopin's chair, reads:
Frederick Chopin (Szopen) 1810 – 1849
The Most Eminent of Polish Composers
This sculpture is a gift of the people of Poland to Singapore, in memory of music's greatest tone poets
Made possible by the generous support of:
Halina and Miroslaw Pienkowski and the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in SingaporeOctober 2008
A mother holding her child high in the air, “Joy” celebrates love, life and laughter.The sculpture has been donated by a member of the public who wishes to remain anonymous. “Joy” is displayed on Lawn H, overlooking Swan Lake.
Statue of boys playing piggy back or "Changkuda.
" Changkuda" literally means horse riding in Malay, a game we used to play in the old carefree days of Singapore. It's simply mounting on someone's back for a fun race...
Created recently by local sculptor Chong Fah Cheong who also did the "First generation" sculpture by the Singapore River banks of Fullerton Hotel.

Singapore Botanic Garden - Jacob Ballas Children's Garden - Fruits trees
In the children's garden we could see many fruits trees.
Fruits of the lipstick tree and it looked like our local rambutan fruits.
Lots of banana plants in the garden
Papaya tree
Very interesting to see so many different types of fruit trees and plants in the children's garden. Very educational garden indeed besides playing in the garden.
