Little Guilin 小桂林 @ Bukit Gombak




Opposite Sunshine Villas
along Bukit Batok East Ave 5
Little Guilin 小桂林 got its name for a reason - for its scenic resemblance of Guilin in China.

Who knows, lying within a modern society in a country like Singapore, hiding behind a stadium in Bukit Gombak, is this picturesque park with a granite rock sitting within a lake.

Despite the slight haze, my housemates Emilia, Alison and Wei Jian were with me, exploring the quintessence of Singapore's nature reserve.

Having witnessed and embraced the lovely landscape, I really felt like 吟詩作對, lol...
Brace yourself, I'm gonna come out with Chinese poetry which most likely have no link with the pictures themselves... XD




桃花影落飛神劍
碧海潮生按玉簫
A quote by 黄蓉, which barely has any link with the picture...







山重水復疑無路
柳暗花明又一村





飛流直下三千尺
疑是銀河落九天
No waterfall also...





路遙知馬力
日久見人心
Oops it's a puppy...





兩岸猿聲啼不住
輕舟已過萬重山
I guess this pair has the closest link, except there's no boat or ape, only flying creature's screech. But I really like this view a lot. In fact, the haze created a very Chinese smoggy scene.
暮雨不來春不去
花滿地 月朦朧

In this picture, we literally stood facing the HDB clusters behind the camera - the irony...
