The Gardens by the Bay in Singapore is a 101 hectare park on reclaimed land, but I would just like to show a few photos of the refrigerated conservatories, each covering about 1 hectare. They are kept at a constant temperature of 23-25° which makes a considerable contrast with the 30-34° outside so if any of you ever decide to visit, I highly recommend warm clothing if you are sensitive to temperature. First of all, here is a photo of the two conservatories that I could not have taken myself to give you an idea of their size.

I went first to the "Flower Dome." You enter through a series of photographs that you will not be able to match.

And then you finally see the size of the building. This is the largest columnless glasshouse in the world.

Things start very simply.

But hey, there's going to be a lot to see.

I decided to start with the succulent garden. It was a bit strange to feel so cool in such a warm climate setting.

I have to admit that I was a bit impatient to get to the nearby baobabs.
