Gardens By The Bay - Crystal Mountain

Crystal Mountain in the Cloud Forest Conservatory allows visitors to learn from the real stalactites and stalagmites.

Love the many mirrors that reflected the images in all directions.

Gardens By The Bay - Cloud Forest - Flowers

Spotted some unique flowers in Cloud Forest Dome but I am not familar with most of the names of the flowers hahaha.

The flower buds looked like a pair of red ear rings. Wish I have a pair of such ear rings.

My World Tuesday - Gardens By The Bay - Cloud Forest

It is nice to have an airconditioned garden right in the heart of Singapore city.

There are two domes in Gardens By The Bay which are air condtioned. Cloud Forest comprised of a 35-metre tall mountain complete with the tallest indoor waterfall covered in lush vegetation, the Cloud Forest portrays plant life from about 2,000-metres above sea level at the top of the mountain to around 1,000-metres at the bottom of the ravine. Read more from the official website

Close up view of the extended balcony from the bridge.

Going to the top of the artificial mountain is easy, take the lift to the 7th floor and slowly descend down via a long walkway. The architectural designs of the dome is really amazing and do remember to pause and admire them.

I do have a fear of heights but for the sake of photography I just had to look down and take some photos of the view hahaha.

For photos on other parts of the world, please visit Our World Tuesday Meme. Thanks to the team of Our World for giving us the opportunity to share my world with the rest of the world.

Skywatch Friday - Gardens By The Bay

The main attraction in Gardens By The Bay must be the two domes.

The two domes looked like giant eggs. I will show the inside of the domes in later posts.

Saw a tree that bears fruits that looked like durians but on closer look, they are not durians. Not sure what trees are they.

The scenery infront of the two domes is beautiful especially with the Singapore Flyer in the background.

Love my new camera, I could zoom at the Singapore Flyer's capsules and able to see the people inside.
