SG Parks

*This post was written last 2011 in My Adventures.  :)

As one of the world’s top tourist destinations, Singapore has established world-class recreational parks.  These are must-see and must-experience places once one set foot on Singapore shores.  Among the fantabulous places I visited were:

National Orchid Garden

Location:  Singapore Botanic Gardens
                1 Cluny Road, Singapore 259569   

Getting There By Public Bus:  Via Holland Road
                                            SBS Transit 7, 015, 123, 174
                                            SMRT 75, 77, 106

                                             SBS Transit 48, 66, 151, 153, 154, 156, 170
                                             SMRT 67, 171

A country of blooming flowers
Orchids are its super powers
Come and smell the sweet blossoms
Until you’ll fill your heart’s bottoms

Wild animals come and roar
Roaming around freely to explore
The wilderness that’s ferocious and savage
Never flash your cameras to prevent some wreckage

Mount Faber

Location:  109 Mount Faber Road, Singapore 62708855

A hill overlooking the city
Everything seems itsy-bitsy

To reach Sentosa without a scar

Fishes, fishes everywhere
Feel like a mermaid as you were
Gotta know each one of them
For you to be able to find your gem

Sentosa:  Dolphin Lagoon

Location:  80 Siloso Road, Singapore 098967

Getting There By Public Bus:  Take the monorail and alight at Station M6

Meet the dolphins
Do the win-wins

Flippin’ backward
You’ll surely enjoy
With the dolphins’ ploy

A sleeping Princess Ami had awakened
From the spell of the village chastened
