- Henderson Waves — The signature, sinuous wooden-and-steel pedestrian bridge that arches above the tree canopy; great light at sunrise/sunset and atmospheric LED lighting at night. It’s also my personal favorite for the views and that “you’re above the trees” feeling.
- Mount Faber / Faber Point — A short climb to a classic lookout with sweeping harbour and city panoramas; there’s a café and the cable car to Sentosa if you want to extend the outing. Easy to reach and excellent for photos.
- Forest Walk (Telok Blangah Hill Park) — An elevated boardwalk threading through secondary rainforest; low, shaded, and surprisingly quiet. You’ll see lots of native plants and often birds and squirrels up close.
- Alexandra Arch — Sleek, white pedestrian bridge with a more minimalist look than Henderson Waves;

- Alexandra Arch — Sleek, white pedestrian bridge with a more minimalist look than Henderson Waves; it links park sections and gives a different vantage of the greenery and skyline. Handy connector and a nice short photo stop.
- HortPark — A horticultural hub with themed gardens, show plots and plant displays — perfect if you like botanics and want a rest on benches surrounded by curated greenery. Good for learning and picking up planting ideas.
- Kent Ridge Park & Canopy Walk — History and nature mixed: WWII markers, shady trails and a canopy-style path with coastal glimpses. Less crowded than the central spots and nice for birdwatching in the morning.
- Birdlife & small wildlife spots — Not a single place, but the whole ridgeline is surprisingly biodiverse: sunbirds, white-breasted kingfishers, monitor lizards, and lots of butterflies. Bring binoculars and stroll slowly early or late in the day.
