Beautiful Gardens in Singapore
Called this Garden City as my forever home 🇸🇬 sharing with you my favourite Gardens in Singapore. I think it’s my nature like to visit gardens, for my inspiration..
Save this post for your future visit to Singapore 🤍
Can’t believe took awhile to collate all the photos for this video, also can’t believe that i’ve visited those Gardens for many many times 😅
1. Gardens By The Bay being the Best Garden, best time to visit, late afternoon until evening to enjoy Supertree light show. If you like night photography stay until late! The ambience blue light at night look amazing too! 👍
2. Singapore Botanic Garden being the Most Romantic in my opinion, i guess because of the feel you get from classic English Garden. Lake with swan, colonial style pergola and big canopy trees.. It’s being Singapore’s 1st UNESCO World Heritage Site too! National Orchid Garden is worth to visit, check out New Orchidetum includes misty cool house & ‘Secret Ravine’ that mimics mountain forests. Best time to visit very early morning or late afternoon.
3. Most Iconic goes to Jewel Changi Airport, need no introduction for this place. Go and check out their Canopy Park where they have Hedge Maze, Mirror Maze, Sky Nets and many more! Best time to visit i would say in the evening 7-8pm as you can enjoy the light show at HSBC Rain Vortex.
4. For moody portrait photography you might want to check Jurong Lake Garden. There is a grassland with Lone tree sculpture. The Lone Tree is made from recycled iron reinforcement bars salvaged from old park pathways. This sculpture is inspired by the industrial origins of Jurong. Best time to visit 6.30-7am, you’ll get the best light on sunny day.

Singapore National Orchid Garden Coolhouse
Love snapping picture at Singapore Botanic Garden especially at National Orchid Garden.. it’s such a beautiful place for afternoon stroll with family 🥰
Orchid is Singapore’s National Flower. Vanda Miss Joaquim was chosen as Singapore's national flower from among 40 other contenders, including some 30 orchids. For its resilience and year-round blooming quality, it was chosen on 15 April 1981 to represent Singapore's uniqueness and hybrid culture.
Tropical Montane Orchidetum
The tropical Montane Orchidetum simulates the experience of ascending through a tropical montane forest and showcases a diversity of orchids and other plants (e.g. bromeliads, gingers, tropical rhododendrons, gesneriads (and magnolias) from the rich low to high-elevation montane forest. Each of the display houses within the Orchidetum has been expanded beyond their original size, increasing by almost threefold the combined display area.
The Sembcorp Cool House
They preserved part of the original 260m2 frame of the original cool house and curated the orchid collection in the Cool House according to five biogeographical regions – Malesia, Continental Southeast Asia and South Asia, Australasia, Afrotropics and the Neotropics.
The Sembcorp Cool House is designed to emulate a high elevation montane forest, which exists at altitudes of 1,000m to 2,000m, and with a surrounding temperature of 16 to 23 degrees Celsius. Researchers will be able to study rare orchids that are naturally found only at higher elevations, such as such as Cymbidiums (also known as Boat Orchids), Dendrochilums (also known as Chain Orchids), Cyrtochilums and Phragmipediums (also known as Slipper Orchids). This will greatly benefit taxonomic and floristic research, as researchers will be able to grow rare species, before identifying and documenting them at a later stage when they flower.
Approximately 1,000 orchid species and hybrids are exhibited in the Cool House, together with new varieties from other plant families beyond orchids, an increase from the previous collection of 350 orchid species. Also growing among the orchids, are collections of carnivorous plants, begonias that have characteristic shimmering leaves that help them to thrive in areas with low light levels.
National Orchid Garden
Opening hours
8.30am - 7.00pm daily (last ticket sales and entry at 6.00pm)

Sling & Swim at Raffles Hotel Singapore
I’ve been always amazed with iconic & historical landmark in Singapore, Raffles Hotel.
It’s always been my favourite, the place and the vibes is just speaks luxury, classy and elegance!
I had a change to experience Sling and Swim @raffleshotelsingapore 🤍
Experience lounge poolside with Raffles Hotel's iconic Singapore Sling in hand and my satay fried rice lunch..
I love the feel of doing nothing at the pool side and enjoy the swimming in this iconic hotel. And not forgetting their impeccable services from all their servers.
During my sling & swim experience, it was raining and the servers were so nice helping me with the umbrella to the covered area and re-arrange my set up after the rain has stopped.
Talking about Singapore Sling.. If you don’t know the iconic drink, The Singapore Sling, widely regarded as the national drink, was first created in 1915 by Raffles bartender Ngiam Tong Boon.
About Raffles Hotel
Raffles Hotel is a British colonial-style luxury hotel in Singapore. It was established by Armenian hoteliers, the Sarkies Brothers, in 1887. The hotel was named after British statesman Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore.

SMOKING HOT COFFEE
Smoking Hot Coffee
We stumbled upon this quaint cafe smokinghotcoffee.sg nestled at a inconspicuous corner of Esplanade Mall, within the lifestyle concept store of furniture, fashion, cafe – Smoke Signature.
We love the industrial chic vibe of the cafe with eclectic decor featuring unique stylish furniture pieces such as the modern looking Beetles chair and vintage couch.
We tried their Signature Charred Smoke Latte and Rose Latte. The gorgeous latte art just makes everything better!
Charred Smoke Latte - Double espresso, steam milk, charcoal extract
Rose Latte - Double espresso, steam milk, rose extract
This lovely quiet cafe is certainly a perfect hideaway to laze your weekend away.
