24 Hours in Singapore

Photobucket
We missed a connecting flight to Thailand but we got the opportunity to see the country/city of Singapore. Among the sites we saw there was the Singapore Botanical Gardens.

An interesting feature within the gardens was this amphitheater that had a leaf-shaped roof.

A side view of the amphitheater. The leaf as roof was a very fitting design.
Sing-fountain
There are many water features in the gardens, possibly a nod to Singapore's natural environment, which is an island with many natural watercourses.
