Wandering Fel

The supertrees are lit up when the sun has set and the night comes in. If you happen to have a lot of time in your hands, do not go home yet. There is a light performance (by the supertrees) called Garden Rhapsody - "The Trees of Life" at two timings, 7.45pm and 8.45pm. 

The night gets darker but you can still walk on the skyway until the 9ish. Since I have climbed up the skyway earlier, I decided to wait for the performance under the lit up tree. 

Garden Rhapsody is basically a lighting play with the nice music as a background. It is a very beautiful performance and it is quite fun to watch. And it's free. =)

There is a restaurant at the biggest supertree so you can also watch the performance while having your dinner. Of course, you need to pay a fair bit of money for the dinner. =P 

Yup, these are real trees. The trees are called "Supertrees" for a reason. The trees are meticulously combined with the steel frames. Then, various kind of plants are planted on the trunk of the trees.

The supertrees are connected to each other by a walkable skyway called OCBC Skyway (sponsored by OCBC Bank I suppose). If you want to walk on the skyway, you need to purchase a ticket. Yes, nothing is free. Too bad. The ticket costs S$5 for adults. If you don't want to go up, you are free to linger around the Supertree Grove. 

After you get the ticket, you can either make your way up by taking the lift or the stairs (anyone need cardio?). There are a few rules that you need to take note before you start walking on the Skyway. The no heels part is kinda funny but some ladies are inseparable with their heels. Fair enough, I guess.

The iconic hotel, Marina Bay Sands ("MBS") is clearly visible from the skyway. I wonder when I have the chance to stay there. Maybe when MBS starts giving discount. Hahaha.

The view from the skyway is gorgeous around sunset. =)

Last admission for the OCBC Skyway is 8.30 PM. It opens daily.
