"Trees" #1

When we visited Singapore in 2006, we found the city/nation/island to be beautiful, clean, orderly. Possibly we could now add the words innovative and fanciful to the description.

Two months ago the big landscaping and parks project, Gardens by the Bay, opened to the public. It includes 18 man-made "trees" up to 150 feet tall. The "trunks" of these trees have solar technology and vertical gardens. Paths have been built between them.
