Connections between 2 world

I have't being to the extreme west for a very long time and there's a place that I have been looking forward to for a very long time. Therefore, I guess that it's time for me to make a visit to that place...

Here comes....

An art piece with a big spiral. :P

The image in the above was the interior of ...

		The tallest Chinese pagoda in Singapore.

Here are views from the top of the Pagoda

and next to the pagoda we have...

Statues of prestigious figures of Chinese history... Can you identify some of them?

As you walk along the path moving towards the lake, you will come across a smaller pagoda near to the lake.

Continue walking along the path and cross the bridge will leads you to the...

Main entrance to this Chinese 'Park'...

continue walking...

cross the bridge and continue walking...

and more walking...

and you will come across a 'koi' pond. Chilli off a bit by taking a look at the fishes swimming...

Getting through this building will lead you to the...

The turtle museum, which is the Guinness World for
having the largest collection of turtles.

Take a short stroll back to the pagoda and you will come across a pond with...

traditional chinese looking buildings surrounding the pond...

and a big statue of Confucius.

As you walk past the pagoda, you will come across a park with...

Stone status of the 12 chinese zodiacs. So which zodiac are you belong to?

Besides for the stone statue, there's also stone
chairs with the zodiacs sitting beside it.
(Like the one that I had shown here.)

Cross another bridge and that will lead you to a completely different world.
No more chinese looking buildings and structures but now that you will be getting is...

Japanese looking structures.
What I have shown here would be the best representative of a Japanese structure.
A 'Torii Gate'.

Next to the 'Torii Gate' would be a Japanese looking Building...

Japanese Garden.
(Although I think they were trying to build a ZEN harden
but it doesn't really look like it, but it still look Japanese,
especially with the stone lanterns, etc...

Spend some time, walk around the park and you might find something that interest you.
For example:

Japanese looking bridges...

Bushes that looks like Mosses...

Interesting looking Pond... etc.

By the way, you have reached the end of this post and the actual name of the places that I had shown here would be the 'Chinese' garden and the 'Japanese' garden located next to the Singapore MRT station of 'Chinese Garden'. Mark my words, it's always a healthy thing to do strolling through a unexplored park and taking a break from the fast-paced city life.

As for myself, I love the countryside and I don't mind staying in the countryside.
Ever since I was young, my ideal home would be a house situated in the middle of
a bamboo forest. It would also be the ideal place for taking a rest from the fast-paced
busy city life of Singapore.
