You can access this park via its main entrance at Alexandra Road, side entrances along Pasir Panjang or walk down the gentle slope and stairways along the Canopy Walk at Kent Ridge Park as it is connected. The beautiful but long walkway winds down the ridge like the roads that wind down the mountain in Italy.
There are many thematic sections in this park. Each rather small but most well maintained. The Balinese Garden must be a joke as there is nothing Balinese in it except the two stone figurines at the entrance. There are glasshouses which are research labs owned by Gardens by the Bay and they offer a free tour.
Hort Park main building is quite impressively surrounded by a Silver Garden, a beautiful lawn, two restaurants and a retail outlet selling plants and garden needs.
There is a multi purpose hall facing the lawn and quite a grand entrance driveway if you want to arrive in style and have your wedding there. It is no wonder that Hort Park has won prestigious awards from overseas.
From here you can walk across the Alexandra Arch and onto the Southern Ridges boardwalk through a Forest Walk all the way to Henderson Waves, Telok Blangah Hill, Mt Faber, Harbourfront, Vivo City...

HortPark has a visitor centre which I did not get to visit. The place is clean and very well maintained. There is a lovely little English Garden here. You are allowed to bring your socially trained dogs here.

There is always something happening at the HortPark.
This place is a must visit and yes it's worth several repeat visits too. 🌟👍.
The Restrooms though need attention 👎. They were not as clean as one would expect them to be. Considering the number of footfalls at HortPark its important to ensure the restrooms are...
