Englischer Garten

The words ‘Englischer Garten’ were brought up again and again during and after classes by my classmates such that I was yearning to visit this garden myself. Why of all garden must I be so curious and interested about this garden? Yes, the frequency that it was mentioned did play a part, but most importantly was the fact that it’s rumored that one can see nude people sunbathing in the garden! Had the word ‘nude’ not been mentioned, I wouldn't have been sooooo curious as to make it a must to visit the garden. (Call me a pervert, I don’t care. Haha…when can one get a chance to see a nude person lying on the grass in the garden in Singapore?)

Well…so did I really see nude people lying around during my visit to the garden? Regretfully…NO! I was disappointed. However had I seen any nude people lying on the grass that day, I would have deemed that person insane. That fateful day that I chose to make my visit to the garden wasn’t ideal at all. It was cloudy and cold, with a bone piercing breeze blowing constantly. There was no sight of the sun at all! It would be absolutely ‘wahnsinn’ for a person to sunbathe in such weather!

It was such cold weather that my visit to the garden was made very short. As such, I didn't visit any of the attractions in the garden, such as the Chinese tower and the Japanese teahouse, and to get to know it better. The chilliness of the weather was just so distracting that I couldn't take in the beauties of the garden. Few photos were taken.
