From the entrance of the Botanic Garden at Bt Timah\/Cluny; we will walk towards the Eco Lake skirting along the edge to Jocab Ballas Children’s Garden. This is a specialized garden constructed for children to learn about plants through play. It will stimulate even adults to the wonder of plants and nature! Let’s spend 20 minutes in this area.<\/p>\n
Passing the Eco Lake from another side, we head towards a paved slope upwards to the Healing Garden. This 2.5 hectare garden, took 3 years to set up, and was launched recently in October by President Tony Tan. It is the largest in Singapore, showcasing a collection of 500 species of SE Asian medicinal plants. The Healing Garden is designed in the shape of a human body — thematically relating to parts or systems of the body, such as "Head, Neck, Ears, Nose and Throat" and "Digestive and Related Systems". It will be enriching to browse around and don’t be surprised to find some plants that have medicinal values are actually common plants.<\/p>\n
After that we will continue to stroll through this green sanctuary via a different route back to the entrance towards Adam Food Centre for our dinner.<\/p>\n
The rainy season seems to be here early. Do bring your umbrella or rain coat, your camera, drinking bottle, sun block, a hat and walking sneakers. <\/p>\n
This is an educational “green walk” you would not want to miss!<\/p>\n
