Supertrees by NIght, Gardens by the Bay, Singapore

By night, the supertrees undergo a Cinderella change. What looked like giant steel structures with its vertical trunks clothed with plants and flowers are now transformed into lovely graceful columns of twinkling colors with its cups at the top changing colors in tune with the music entitled OCBC Rhapsody.
One can view the spectacle from the vantage point of the OCBC Skyway 25 meters above ground or from below, looking up.

The hundreds of cars parked in the underground car park testified to the hundreds of people including children, thronging the gardens to watch this magnificent display of lights. There are two shows each night.
Fortunately the skies were clear after the heavy rain in the afternoon. These pretty lights light up the walls of the path leading into the Supertree Grove.
This one shows the Golden Cluster with the Cloud Forest Dome in the background.
To appreciate the beauty of these super trees, one needs to see them in the light of day as well as by night. A most enchanting experience it was for me.
