One of the best and most expensive corners of the world, just like the park for children of famous Disney, – Singapore has long won the hearts of all adults with its high technologies and financial opportunities. This place combines hundreds of the most incredible architectural projects on the planet, one of which is the world-famous natural park – the Gardens by the Bay.
The biggest architectural and landscape project of the world, which has an area of more than 100 hectares, is located at the center of Singapore and is considered the most popular tourist attraction. Every year the park is visited by more than 7 million guests of the city-state. At first, the idea of its construction appeared in 2005. But a grand opening of the unique futuristic park happened only after several years, in 2011. It soon became a true symbol of Singapore and a favorite recreation place of citizens.
The whole territory of the famous park is divided into three separate natural zones: Bay East Garden, Bay South Garden and Bay Central Garden. The Bay East Garden was opened first – in 2011. It includes a fascinating landscape embankment around 2 kilometers long. It consists of several fantastic landscaped gardens, each of which has its own theme. However, all of them are aimed at the gradual implementation of numerous artificial reservoirs into their space.
A southern garden called Bay South was opened a year later. It took half of the territory of the whole project. The central element of that space is the national flower of Singapore – the orchid. In this place, there are two main greenhouses: the biggest column greenhouse in the world «Flower Dome», filled with various exhibitions of flowers and plants, and «Cloud Forest», which reaches the height of 42 meters and has its own lift. When you go down from a mountain covered with greenery by a spiral staircase, you can enjoy the view of a splendid 35-meter artificial waterfall. Moreover, it creates pleasant coolness in the pavilion.
A link between these two fairy-tale spaces is the third garden – Bay Central – with its 3 kilometers embankment for slow promenades and romantic dates.
