Garden By the Bay- Flower Dome
Hi, Im back again to continue my journey to Garden By the Bay. I can't believe it took me 4 days to end off this blog post.
Second part was to take a tour at Flower Dome and I could say ITS A MUST TO EXPLORE THIS PLACE at least once.
Before going for our second tour, we were famished so we settled our late lunch at TEXAS chicken which I still prefer Kentucky chicken for their spiciness and crispness whereas Zhi wei voted for their fast food restaurant.But the fries definitely outwin KFC la because I love thick fries!
In Flower Dome, You can expect lots of species of flowers posters as you walk in through the entrance. All vibrant colour looking posters, makes your heart really excited to see what's more next.
Do you know that there are a total of 3,332 glass panels of 42 varying shapes and sizes in the Flower Dome? The glass panels are equipped with light sensor shadings to ensure that the flowers and plants in the conservatories will receive maximum light yet maintaining at the right temperature. (23°C to 25°C.)
There are a whole bunch of exotic flowers out there.
Once you are inside, you will feel this nice cool environment. The place is huge! We didn't know where to start or how to walk in order not to miss anything. We just walked with our guts and we met a lot of dead ends but eventually the tour last us less than 2 hours. HAH.
Right after passing by the flowers, you will be greeted by even more colourful display in the middle of the hall just before the exit! I later on learnt that it's actually the flower gallery, which they will change the display according to the festive period.
Look at my Xin fu face after walking half of the dome! So pretty please (:
The highlight of the Flower Dome is the flower field located at the central of the conservatory. The flower field will have changing colourful displays of temporary flower beds, specially designed to reflect different seasons, festivals and themes
I love the way the curves of the flower dome look inside and with so much greenry in it that it is almost obscene. The dome is huge too since there are towering trees that I can't even see the top of it! In fact, it is the world's largest columnless greenhouse.
I do really enjoy the cool dry air inside after walking for so long to get to the place. Inside the Flower Dome, it is being organized into different regions of the world, like the Mediterranean regions of South Africa, California and parts of Spain and Italy.
And the rest are just our shots.
Let the pictures explained it all! We have fun laughing, posing for pictures and did sillies things together.
Such a memorable day with zhiwei and an add on to my memories (:
Till then.
