Mount Faber Park: Henderson Waves

Part bridge, part observation deck, part skate ramp, this undulating "wave" bridge made up of rib-like slats of yellow bakau wood is a photo-op waiting to happen. Overlooking the southern ridges of Singapore all the way to Sentosa Island where the infamous "Reflections" hotel and resort calls home, the bridge is the highest pedestrian bridge in all of Singapore. Not only is it visually stimulating, but is the perfect place to escape the city for some exercise. The bridge lights up at night, with the wave-form illuminated with attractive LED light from 7pm to 2am daily. The bridge connects Henderson Road to Mount Faber to Telok Blangah Hill as is the perfect place to unwind, take a breath and get lost in nature. Visit http://www.nparks.gov.sg/cms/popup/hendersons.html for more information.

Word to the wise: Bring lots of water and bug spray. The park is huge and the trees trap in all the heat.
