I mentioned about some ‘barefooted’ footprints on a circular path in the previous post.  This path surrounds a small size inner garden that has different orchid breeds.  They are all lined up neatly in this mini garden.  Although the weather is hot and a little unbearable, but we felt happy to see these beauties around us.

After we have walked around the mini garden, we passed through this beautiful landscape.  Though orchids are still the main attraction as you can see on the ground near the little man made stream, there are also other plants in the landscape that bring up its inner beauty.

We have also seen other things.  For example, this pitcher plant-shaped rubbish bin.  We think that this is quite a creative idea.  It might attract people to use it.  They are everywhere around the garden.

As we walked, we also found a pair of gloves left by the gardener.

We found another plant which is not orchid.

These orchids grow with a support and they are as tall as a kid.

There is an area where entry is prohibited.  From far, we had a good view of this area.  I think that this might be the nursery for the orchids in the garden.  Everything is neat and tidy in this garden, including the nursery!

Soon, we came back to the entry lounge.  We were so thirsty so we bought a drink from the cafe and sat down to enjoy the drink and have some refreshments.  Colin showed me the painting of the slipper orchid which is hanging on the wall outside a shop next to the entrance.

DUN and the orchids garden.

Another view of the orchid garden.  This time, we could see the other side of the Astana.

From the other direction of the orchid garden, we could capture the Wisma Bapa Malaysia building (the ‘Father of Malaysia’ building).

This is the final episode of this orchid garden.  We like this place mainly because there are different types of orchids, and it is “still” in good condition.  We will visit this place again to check if it is well-maintained.  In our point of view, it should be promoted to become a tourist spot, and there should be some sign boards at Kuching Waterfront to let the visitors know about the Orchid garden which is just across the river.
