GARDENS BY THE BAY

We were on the way to Marina Bay Sands (MBS) and I took these photos of the super trees at the upcoming Gardens by the Bay (GB). This is like a prelude to the garden and its presence is definitely felt by all drivers who ply along the East Coast Parkway (ECP) with the erection of these super trees and construction of a pedestrian garden bridge linking the garden to the MBS area.

These are the 2 venues for the upcoming 20th World Orchid Conference 2011 (WOC) in Nov hosted in Singapore for the first time. Come Nov 2011 and visitors would be able to have a first glimpse of and entry to GB at its Flower Dome.

Links to GB and WOC are shown below:
