Fort Canning Park
2 savesRecommendation by Lemi
In “Crazy Rich Asians,” Colin and resort heiress Araminta Lee’s wedding reception is held at Fort Canning Park. In the story, the great lawn was transformed into a magical garden plucked straight out of Alice in Wonderland. In real life, however, Fort Canning Park is a historical landmark that served as the palatial home of Malay royalty, and an outpost of British colonizers. Today, it is a venue for concerts, theatre shows, and festivals. Walk around the 18-hectare space to encounter tidbits of Singapore’s history, remnants of old architecture, and vast amounts of greenery!

Nan Lian Garden
Surrounded by high-rise buildings in Diamond Hills, the Nan Lian Garden truly speaks of “the breathing space”. What sets Nan Lian Garden apart from other parks is its perfect arrangement of greeneries, ponds, and benches that allow for greater appreciation of the space. It presents a magnificent fusion of Tang-dynasty and modern architecture that is most appreciated through its one-way circular route that lets you enjoy a full experience of the place in one go. The Nan Lian Garden is a place that is brilliant for travelers who want a mesmerizing and laidback experience of Hong Kong.

Southern Ridges
Singapore is a very beautiful city, but sometimes the locals need a break from the hustle and bustle of city-life. Where do they go? Singapore has a lot of pretty and well-maintained parks but the Southern Ridges is worth a special mention! Escape from the city with this 10km of green space, a pocket in-between skyscrapers and high-density housing. Get lost in the elevated bridges and look beneath the greeneries as you stroll.
