Sentosa Flowers – Enchanted Spring 2012 Part 4

The next and final part of this journey takes me to Merlion Walk to the Beach Station.

Sea World

A Walking Flower … Only on the Magical Island of Sentosa

The Enchanted Underwater world

Beware of the flying jelly fish

The Sea World experience would not be complete without Nemo, the clownfish

With that, I bid Sentosa Flowers goodbye while I make my way back to the mainland

Journey back to Reality

Taking the Pink Sentosa Express to Vivocity

The Sentosa Flowers is an annual event organized by Sentosa and would coincide with the first week of the Chinese New Year celebration. Each year would have a different theme and would celebrate the zodiac of that year.

Throughout the walk, you will find souvenir and snacks and drinks to keep you going through the experience. Of course, you could pop into the various F&B outlets on the island ranging from fine dining to the laid back experience of the food court or fast food joints.

Dress light and wear some comfortable shoes as you probably would be walking quite a bit. Of course, Singapore and its crazy weather, it could turn from sunny to thunderstorm so do bring along an umbrella for those moments.

It is best to enter Sentosa through the Sentosa Boardwalk as it would give you the full experience of the open exhibitions of flowers starting from when you enter Sentosa to the beach front at Palawan Beach. You could hop on the Sentosa Express monorail back to Vivocity as it would be the comfortable way to travel.

I do hope you enjoy the experience with me. This is the last blog of the series until next year.

Sentosa Flowers – Enchanted Spring 2012 Part 1

I’ve just returned from visiting Sentosa Flowers 2012. This year’s theme was Enchanted Spring and being the year of the Dragon, there were a number of flowers arrangements which resembles dragons.

This year’s Sentosa Flowers is held between January 22 to 29th 2012 during the first week of Chinese New Year
