Hospitals see a lot, you know? People turn up in all sorts of states. Sounds like standard hospital drama to me. Probably just someone who had a fall or something and couldn't remember who they were. Happens more often than you'd think. Unless they were talking about some crazy conspiracy, I wouldn't sweat it. They're probably just overworked and gossiping. Singapore's healthcare system is usually pretty tight-lipped about patient details anyway, for good reason.

Nah, I've never seen that. The Botanic Gardens are huge though, easy to miss stuff. Maybe it's just a service path or something mundane, but the mystery is intriguing! Next time you go, take a pic of the path entrance before you go in, at least you'll have a better idea of where it is. Good luck with the exploration! Let us know if you find Atlantis or something equally amazing.

That's a good point about the service path – hadn't thought of that. It was so overgrown and tucked away, it really felt…off. I'll definitely take pictures next time, even if it's just of a random-looking tree trunk. Better than nothing! Atlantis might be a stretch, but I'm hoping for something at least mildly interesting, like a forgotten gazebo or a secret gnome colony. Wish me luck!
