We left Henderson Waves behind and look forward to another iconic bridge, the Alexandra Arch. Lolx, what's up with bridges being checkpoints throughout our journey? Here in Singapore, the only buildings worthy of being checkpoints are either MRT stations, or Shopping Malls! Anyways, Alexandra Arch wasn't that far off as the signs were already pointing us to the right direction.
Lalalalala... It was an enjoyable walk. One thing to take note, I've not seen a single vending machine from start to finish. So bring your own water and snacks. By this point, the missus and I had finished up a litre of water already. And if you're stuck without water, you're gonna have a hard time enjoying yourself.
Going up the steps will lead you to the Picnic Hilltop.
You can never get lost. Even without a map, you can confidently walk towards either bridges. Signs such as these (yes, they look like they're serving a temporary purpose), are everywhere and should guide you.
At the end of the road, the Forest Walk comes into view.
Tadaa!!! The picture is just like the ones you see on the papers. heheh. Breathtaking view that makes you wonder how the heck something as complex and as overgrown as this can be kept preserved and unnoticed from the majority of Singaporeans.
The paths are supported by steel columns.
The staircases act as shortcuts. Whilst you could walk the whole path through a gradual slope, the staircases make it shorter and immediately bring you to a lower level.
The path snakes through treetops...
There's really a shortage of space here in Singapore...
I like this picture. Its like stepping into a new world...
I call this the path to hell... It ends abruptly. Perhaps an extension is in the works?
As we reached the end of the path, the Alexandra Arch comes into view... The Forest Walk was an enjoyable one. Truly enjoyed myself. Though it wasn't as high as the Canopy Walk at Taman Negara in Malaysia, or as scenic, I think with what little greenery Singapore has, the walk has made full use of it.
Stay tuned for Part 4! Wahlau so many pictures must edit!
