I was lucky enough to head to Singapore for work and then add on a few days to explore this amazingly diverse city.  The first outing was to the Gardens by the Bay.  Built on reclaimed land, there are a variety of outdoor gardens,  2 large climate controlled indoor conservatories (Flower Dome and Cloud Forest) in addition to the man-made ‘trees’ in Supertree Grove.  It is a beautiful and calming oasis from the bustling urban energy that is Singapore.
