Those of you who have already taken a walk on the Southern Ridges bridges will recognise this as Henderson Waves - the tallest bridge in Singapore. It is really a very cool infrastructure that provides a panaromic view of the Southern Ridges hill parks, the city, harbour, and the Southern Islands of Singapore.
After this bridge, we walked on the Forest Walk - "a step-free elevated walkway and ground level earth trails through the secondary forest of Telok Blangah Hill." It was a refreshing walk as we enjoyed the cool breeze of the late afternoon and the sights of the flora and fauna around us. There was even a family of three monkeys that "stalked" us. The walk ended at the Alexandra Arch which is in HP's "neighbourhood". We then proceeded to HortPark, Southeast Asia's first gardening hub and a place Kelvin says is "even lovelier than Tokyo's gardens". HP is doing some exciting stuff at HortPark but more on that in another post.
Along with Daphne, Boon Yew and Kelvin, I had the privilege of walking the bridge before its official opening, at the invitation of NParks; that's why you'd notice that there wasa hole in the bridge since the workers are still putting the finishing touches to it.
