Continuing from yesterday's post, near the entrance of the Fort Canning Park, is this little Spice Garden. It is so interesting, I wish I got more time to explore the area.
Displays of some of the spices from the plants found in the garden.

Fort Canning Park - Part 1
This is Fort Canning Park. I just visited the entrance of the park, did not really venture right into it cause I was on another appointment and there were more than 10 people with me. They dont have the patience to accompany me into the park...lol.
The gate in gothic style lead the visitor into the park, where a Christian cemetery used to stand. Built in 1846, these gates have since become landmarks of Fort Canning Hill. Note the letters above both gates - IHS - standing for Iota Heta Sigm , the first three letters of the Greek word for Jesus. You can read more about it in here.
I love this huge bird nest fern.
Saw these white little flowers in the background they are Vinca Rosea. Their leaves are used as anti cancerous agent. Did not have the close up photo of the white flower (they did not turn out clear.)

Pink Saturday-Pink Bags
My contribution for pink saturday are these lovely bags that I got it free from my sister. She got so many free bags from the cosmetics shop that she used to patronize. I have more free bags from shopping sprees and friends too. :) And not forgetting free travel bags from travel agents when I go travelling, so I ended up giving away a lot of the travelling bags to my friends/relatives....lol. Some of the bags are very pretty and some are very useful while some are so small.
