Singapore Gardens



On my first long weekend, I decided to visit the tourist places in Singapore.

My first destination is The Singapore Botanical Gardens, the reason being that it's ranked top in tripadvisor.com

After having a late breakfast, I started from my place and reached the gardens at around 2 pm. 
There is no entrance ticket for the garden. I started walking inside and found these beautiful places. 

All of you knew that there'll be nothing much to write about any gardens except posting pics of their beauty. So, here comes the pics.
