Chinese Garden

February 20, 2010

From Tampines station, we headed straight to the Chinese Garden, which has its own LRT station, making it very accessible.

Upon exiting, the view somehow reminded me of UP Diliman. See for yourself.

Like most Chinese temples, huge stone lions are prominently “guarding” the entrance. We were then greeted by a beautiful seven-storey “Ru Yun Ta” pagoda. Did you know that pagodas were used by ancient Buddhists to store human bones? Pretty creepy huh!

Don’t pass up the opportunity to go up so you can have a 360 degree view of the city. I won’t post photos so you just have to see it for yourself. The tiring walk up the stairs will be worth it! Awesome!

In addition, it also houses a Suzhou-styke bonsai garden inside, reputedly costing SGD3.8 million. There’s also a live turtle and tortoise (know the difference?) museum inside where you get to feed and interact with turtles and tortoises. And to make the most of your trip, the Jurong Bird Park is located near the Chinese Garden too.

This is actually one of the highlights of our trip. And we all had a lot of fun taking pictures and posing. Our pacing wasn’t rushed but not too slow either, just enough to get that belly fat burner working. Prepare to spend at least half a day exploring this eastern part of Singapore. And be sure to check out Jurong Bird Park while there. This is about 45 minutes away from the city, and it would be a waste of time if you’d have to go back.

Share and Enjoy:

About This Mess

When I was younger, I never wanted to get married. But what do I know right? My then-girlfriend-and-now-wife comes along, knocks me senseless (literally, because she’s freakishly stronger than I am), and BAM! I’m a husband. Here's a weblog of our roller coaster life. Contact: ricoatriza@gmail.com.
