GARDENS BY THE BAY


I did not have enough time to  explore the Magnificent Flower Dome. Only managed to spend an hour there.Sigh. Such an amazing place. I was truly enchanted.  Here I share a feq picturesl of my idea of fairyland with you.

I was not satisfied with my visit to the Flower Dome at GardenS by the Bay in Singapore as there was soooo much to see but not enough time to take in everything.  I will definitely go back again to spend time there.
The Flower Dome is one of two conservatories at the Gardens. The other being Cloud Forest. It is the larger of the two, at 1.2 hectares. This conservatory replicates cool dry conditions and features permanent displays of plants found in the Mediterranean and semi-arid tropical regions.The Cloud Forest is slightly smaller at 0.8 hectares (2.0 acres) and it replicates the cool moist conditions found in tropical mountain regions between 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) and 3,000 metres (9,800 ft) above sea level. It features a "Cloud Mountain", accessible by an elevator, and visitors will be able to descend the mountain via a circular path where a 35-metre (115 ft) waterfall provides visitors with refreshing cool air.
