[2025 Singapore Attraction] Travel Guide for Kent Ridge Park (Updated Mar)

#bestsunset #100WaysOfTravel On my way to Kent Ridge MRT station, I alighted at the NUH bus stop and happened to see a glowing sunset. It was about 7pm and along the AYE expressway towards NUH. The sun was glowing and the skies were clear. It was a good day and the sunset lasted until 7.40pm. There were not much high rise building here and the views are unblocked. I also walked up to the overhead bridge to get closer to the sunset and there was no crowd here too. If you are staying in the hotels in this area, you should be able to see sunset in the west direction. #singapore #liveyourdreams #takethattrip
