Supertrees Skywalk

Went to Singapore's newest attraction, Gardens by the Bay. The whole thing is basically a massive patch of gardens built on top of reclaimed land.

Futuristic Gardens by the Bay
Massive botanic garden meets Gattaca.
The place was huge, and since it was really hot and humid, I decided to visit just the supertrees then head back.

Skywalk!
These supertrees were TALL. They had plants running all across the columns, and there was some high-tech wizardry about the supertrees and electricity or something, but it was getting too hot for me to remember things.

View atop the skywalk
Giant trees! Tiny humans!

For the cost of SGD 5 per person, you could walk along the skywalk. Not recommended for those afraid of heights, IMHO.. The suspended bridge had this mesh flooring, but for some reason a big swab of the floor had these grills which you can see through all the way down to the ground!

See-through bridge floor
Yikes! Not for the faint-hearted..
As soon as I got down, I made a beeline to the cool air-conditioned food court and got myself some iced tea. The restaurant I went to had these really cool menus in the form of newspapers!

What's in the news today? Tea and coffee :D
I really like Singapore. Despite inducing heat strokes in me.
