When Alexandra Link and Henderson Crossing are opened, challenge yourself to walk from Kent Ridge through this HortPark to Alexandra Link, Telok Blangah Hill Park to Henderson Crossing?

Finally, I have an opportunity to cover HortPark!
 
You can spot the vehicular entrance, it's just after the Alexandra Arch bridge.
 
Check out their parking rates!

Arriving at the main entrance.
 
Sun shining through the openings... casting shadows on the ground.
 
Following the staff to listen to a herbal beauty talk... down the spiral staircase.

I love the mint leaves (love it in my Mojito drink especially!)... bought a pot home for S$7.

The first thing that they taught was supposed to be good for refreshing your breath or cure sore gums and ulcers. use grind cloves on your ulcers directly could help.
 
This is the cloves mouthwash. Made of grind cloves in powdery form, honey and water. i didn't try this. can see the grimace on my colleagues' face... haha... heard cloves are bitting on its own.

These are cloves, if you haven't seen them before.

Face Mask 
Yogurt and Aloe Vera
 
It's supposed to be good for treating sunburns and moisturizing your skin
 
the instructors warned that there are people who are allergic to the yellow sap from aloe vera. so, do a sample test on your hand first.
 
simply blend the 2 ingredients together.

the workshop is very short.
 
Time under the scorching sun was much longer. I think you will not like to the idea to be baked under the sun...
 
The facemask was popular and many tabao some back

This recipe for hair was kind of messy so it was not demonstrated.

that's a mosquito plant that she's touching. Smells good and it's known to fend off mosquitoes... interesting, right? you can also put pots of mint, chilli padi and basil plants in your kitchen to pluck and cook!

u can choose to have aquatic plants in your living room too!

or simply bottled the miniature plants
