The All Natural Toa Payoh Town Garden
written by fuzk23 on August 26th, 2009 , 8 comments (2 votes)

Toa Payoh Town Garden, or more affectionately known as Toa Payoh Garden, is a garden that lets you take your mind off work and soak in all that natural beauty. Constructed in the 1970s, it is a place that continues to remain relevant even in today’s busy world. It is also one of the most sought after areas for wedding couples looking for a place to shoot in the 70s. In fact, my parents had their wedding photo shoot right in this garden!

The lush open areas, pavilions, and rustic-looking gazebos make this garden a perfect place for families to gather on a lazy Sunday afternoon. A bus depot, shopping malls, and even a cinema complex is nearby, making this a truly wonderful place to hang out should you want to escape from the busy city life. Oh, and keep a lookout for wedding couples taking their photographs too!
