Supertrees

How many SuperTrees are there?
If you are curious, do an online search.



If you are bored in Singapore, you can go take a walk at the Gardens too.
It's quite therapeutic on days which have nice weather and even on hot days.

On cool days, it's a nice easy walk. On hot days, wear the cool climate tees and sweat it out!

Supertrees....

Another view of the SuperTrees during the weekend....



The Supertrees are not growing bigger or taller, but the real plants around are.

Supertrees

I was recently as the Gardens by the Bay (again.)

Everyone never fails to whip out their camera or even phone cameras to take a photo or two of these magnificent trees.



There are probably the only trees in the garden that won't grow any taller!
But they will grow side ways (because of the plants).
Just like humans when they reach a certain age.
haha!

Flyer, Supertrees and the Flower Dome

Too bad it was a gloomy day, it was raining and I was out.

We were crossing the DragonFly Bridge that links Gardens by the Bay to Marina Bay Sands and saw this. The Singapore Flyer, 3 of the many Supertrees and the Flower Dome.



Probably the most interesting place that I saw over the weekend was the Flower Dome.
My brother told me that the Flower Dome and the one next to it have the world's longest span single length braces.

I think there should be some National Geographic or Discovery Channel show about how it was built probably? Can't wait to watch it if there is one.

Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay

Was at the last day of the preview of Gardens by the Bay and it was awesome!

Yes, there were insane crowds. Did not know that there are so many nature lovers in Singapore. Everyone's going to the Gardens!



These are the SuperTrees at Gardens by the Bay.
They are 25-50 metres tall, which is like 9-16 storeys tall.

Beautiful isn't it?
Google / Yahoo / Bing around the net to find out more about them.
