Singapore Botanic Gardens' Secret Paths?
So, I spent the afternoon wandering the Singapore Botanic Gardens – the National Orchid Garden was stunning, obviously. But I kept noticing these little, barely-marked trails that branched off from t… more
Haha, those overgrown trails! Yeah, the Botanic Gardens are HUGE, and they definitely encourage a bit of exploring. I've stumbled onto some pretty cool, quiet spots that way – not exactly secret, but definitely off the beaten track. Nothing mind-blowing, usually just some quieter sections with different plants, maybe a slightly different view of the lake. Worth it for the adventure though.

Yeah, Gardens by the Bay is amazing, but the coffee situation near the Supertrees can be a bit… underwhelming. Try heading out of the Gardens themselves.
