We woke up early and enjoyed yet another "free" breakfast at the hotel. Then we ventured to Gardens by the Bay, a "free" exhibit that houses a beautiful combination of gardens from across SE Asia. I write free in " " because the admission to the garden area is free, but all of the exhibits within the garden cost money. Womp. Womp. Womp. You got me again, Singapore! We did get to see some beautiful vegetation, as well as learn about different gardening traditions around the world. In India, women create kolam gardens (kolam is a rice flour chalk used to draw pictures), which are thought to bring prosperity to the home. The intricate details and color selections make these gardens gorgeous. It was great to do so many things in such a beautiful city!
Looks like a beautiful city. ...but...what's with the baby in the bushes?....
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure. So oddly placed, right? That's why I had to take the photo.
DeleteOaky, the baby is just odd....but probably has great meaning!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful gardens...interesting buildings!!
The pretty painted ones have a Charleston look!
