Singapore is a well-known garden city. Do you know how many parks and gardens are there in Singapore? A check with http://www.nparks.gov.sg/ and found that there are easily more than 40 parks and gardens. Have you visited any one recently?
In January, I visited Labrador Nature Reserve and Kent Ridge Park. I was amazed by the sizes of these parks. The parks are big, well-maintained, full with different types of trees, ferns, bushes, insects etc. The tall trees formed a canopy and it is so quiet that when you walk under the canopy, you simply wonder if you are still in Singapore or trekking in a dense forest.
The air is fresh. The parks are clean. Besides the birds' chirping, occasionally you may see a few wild monkey wandering in the parks but please be reminded that you are not supposed to feed or disturb them.
You do not need to pay any entrance fees to most of these parks. If the weather is cloudy and windy, spending half a day there to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature is definitely a wonderful experience.
