Yesterday after visiting Molly, my mum, my hubby, Aunty Jean, Uncle Si Kang, Yee Hwee and me went to explore the Southern Ridges. We parked our car and began our walk at Hort Park - the gardening hub. It is located at the base of the bridge at Alexandra Arch; Floral Walk offers a delightful stroll along a path lined with flowering plants.

Natural umbrella! It was huge!

Henderson Waves is located 36 metres above Henderson Road, it is the highest pedestrian bridge in Singapore. It was built to connect the two hills of Mount Faber and Telok Blangah Hill.

The bridge has a unique wave-form made up of seven undulating curved steel "ribs" that alternately rise over and under the deck. The cured "ribs" form alcoves that functions as shelters with seats within.

The wave-forms will be lit with attractive LED light from 7pm to 2am daily, giving the bridge an illuminative glow.

These photos was taken at the forest walk. It was a steps-free elevated walkway with earth trails meanders through some 50 metres through the secondary forest of Telok Blangah Hill and connects to Alexandra Arch. The raised walkway with the heights ranging from 3 to 18 metres brushes the canopy trees and offers a bird's eye of the forest.

On our way back to our car, instead of taking the same route we explored the jungle walk. It was so much fun and interesting than the normal route.
