SG50 Jubilee Weekend: Singapore Botanic Gardens

Yesterday, on the third day of Jubilee weekend, we went to Singapore Botanic Gardens. We wanted to watch free concerts and National Day Parade live telecast at Shaw Foundation Symphony Stage.

We took the bus to Botanic Gardens MRT…. free ride for everyone yesterday! From there, we took the shuttle bus to the other Botanic Gardens entrance, and walked to the concert venue.

On the way there, we made a quick stop to check out the carnival around the Bandstand. There were a number of booths offering food and drinks, snacks, face painting, henna painting, games, botanical art, nail art, and many more….

Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden

Two weeks ago, we went to Children’s Garden at Gardens by the Bay. This week, we went to another garden built specially for kids… Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden.

We’ve been to the garden quite a few times since it’s not too far from where we live. It is a part of the Singapore Botanic Gardens, but it has a separate entrance located next to NUS Bukit Timah campus.
