Singapore is the land of beauty and most of its parts are covered with trees
and foliage. Singapore Botanic Garden, located at the Cluny Road is one of the
best places of the city and the country as well.
The Singapore Botanic Garden ages over one
and a half century and is
considered as one of the World Heritage Sites. This garden is located adjacent
to the Singapore city and the only tropical garden in the country. Moreover,
the garden has been awarded as the top attractive park in 2013 and some
other prestigious awards for its diversified trees and plants. The history of the
gardens dates back to the 18th century when an agri-horticultural society
formed it. The garden has helped greatly to expand the business of the locality
particularly the rubber industry. Besides, the plants
and trees inside the garden
are also used for numerous research and analysis. Now it is a centre for orchid
study which has brought global recognition for the garden. Moreover, this is a
place to gain inner peace amid the natural tranquillity.
The garden is like a small piece of heaven. The natural beauty of the garden is
breathtaking. The small lakes reflect the blue sky on them and sitting idly by
the lakes under the tree shades is priceless. The garden houses over 3000
species of orchids, both natural and hybrid. The
garden was established with
the view to evaluate the cultivation crops for economic growth. The garden
has some interesting histories and passed some crucial moments during the
Japanese invasion in Singapore. But it was protected from the invasion and
proper care was taken as there were numerous precious plants and trees. The
garden was renamed as Shonan Botanic Gardens and the name was changed
again with the help of a university professor. The garden contains different
smaller gardens and lakes
like National Orchid Garden, VIP Orchid Garden,
Symphony Lake, and Ginger Garden etc.
The Singapore Botanical Gardens opens from early in the morning (5am) and
remains opened till the midnight (12pm). People of all strata come here with
different purposes. There are some health conscious people who come here in
the early morning and perform different types of exercises. Many of them walk
across the garden and some of them love to jog. Often I go there for jogging in
the morning hours. Sometimes, there are people
who come with the pet
animals. It is a great place for all to pass some moments with nature. Besides,
there are some people who come here only to enjoy the natural beauty. They
take some breathing exercises in the open air. This is a helpful exercise for the
lungs, I think. In the evening hours, people come here to relax. Mostly the
tourists come here in the evening to enjoy the natural beauty and views of the
garden. Besides, the garden takes an amazing look during the night time. In the
evening, the birds living on the trees come and
make some noises which are
truly enjoyable.
I remember the garden for several reasons. This is the only place which allows
me to take breath peacefully. This is the place where there are no hustle and
bustle of the city could reach. The garden allows all types of people to enter
and enjoy the beauty of nature. The most attractive issue for the garden is that
there are no fees are required to enter into the garden and anyone can stay
here as long as the garden remains opened. Besides,
there are some stores
adjacent the gardens which help the visitors to take foods comfortably. The
walkways are built with great care while the statues will make you amazed. I
usually go to the garden at 5.30 am every day and sometimes I walk and most
of the time I jog here for about an hour. After the jogging and walking, I take
rest for few minutes and return home. This is a great place indeed for the
nature lovers. I try to visit the garden in the evening and take an evening walk
if I miss the morning schedule. The spaces inside the
garden are large and the
light breezes are adorable. For all those reasons, I like the garden most in the
city.
