Exploring Mount Faber @ Harbourfront

It was not the first time to attempt exploring Mount Faber. Last time I went there, it was in the middle of weekdays (I generally don't like crowded weekend parks), in the afternoon, a girl alone, and it was vacant beyond expectation, to the point I got scared! So maybe it's a good idea to bring along a friend or visit on weekend when it's more crowded.
So this time round, I brought one friend with me who is pretty well versed with the park and we went on a long but refreshing walk :) 

Entrance to Mount Faber right after getting out from Harbourfront MRT exit A

Be careful of branches falling :)

Love the jungly and exotic feel!

Stairways to heaven.. but a bit too long

Beautiful greenery from the mid-point

Yup, cabs and cars do come up here! Even some tourist buses!

Majestic tall trees

Lonely looking bench. Maybe because of the cloudy weather.

Cute orange flowers peeping through

Lovely sun light through the leaves

Pretty orange ivy flowers all over the roof!

Some big and generous looking trees lining up

Love the gentle blow of the breeze

Wall paper looking really sticky plants!

Famous Henderson Waves to Hort park (though the two parks are not near at all!)

Amazing architecture with natural wooden blend

View that looks down to city (of course, where is not a city in Singapore!)

Way down down down. Much easier walk definitely

Ominous looking sky! with dark surrounding trees

I love this shalala tree! so typical Chinese paradise like.

Accidental exploration turned beautiful!

The way to Terrace Garden or Garden Terrace.

Looking backwards.. 

Old looking building with an old grandpa taking a walk.

We thought of stopping in the middle but he gave us the courage to go up! If you are seeing this by any chance, thank you!

Lovely viewpoint looking down to city. Must be gorgeous at night!

Pretty tree with interesting patterned leaves

Yellow cheerful flower saying hello :)

The way down to somewhere.. Must be Hort Park?!

Unexpectedly long canopy walk

Walk surrounded by all sorts of trees. So pretty

These two monkeys suddenly started playing/fighting and thanks to one gentleman, we walked right behind him and he was so kind enough to have helped us go pass them! Thank you!

My friend thought the mid path could have been a beautiful waterfall.
Maybe a new idea for Singaporean government?

So jungly! Love the messy nature vibe.

Somehow I prefer these kinds of plants to colorful flowers. They give me a sense of serenity and composure for some reasons

One tree in the process of worshiping the Sun

Cloudy yet best weather! and Thank you God for not giving us the rain!

Pretty looking school. These students must be so lucky to have been surrounded by these wonderful flora.

A huge giant tree that must have been standing here for more than hundreds of years. (hopefully it's not artificial.) 

Couldn't choose which was the better one

Hort Park lounge! Beautiful place! Though at this time there was no water due to cleaning.

Playground for the kids, but still in construction

Hort Park was really pretty too but I was too tired to go up the park after having walked for three hours. I think I really gotta build stamina!

Anyways, it was a really cool (literally) eco-friendly daytrip :) It's a shame that although it's so near my place I rarely come over here! Hopefully I will get to visit this park more often! Next time, I'll aim Hort Park and Kent Ridge Park!
