Did you know that tulips first originated from Turkey and there are so many varieties of tulips besides the ubiquitous tulips bulbs? This year TulipMania setting in Gardens by the Bay, flower dome is set like the ancient Otterman empire (today Turkey) instead of the usual windmills decoration inspired from Holland.
Last weekend, my friend who is like my elder sister and I went to flower dome to admire beautiful tulip flowers. I've never been to Holland so this is a good alternative for me to see so many tulip varieties. There are currently 75 known tulip species. From now till 22 May, you can admire different tulip species at Flower Dome. Well, if you are going with your girlfriend, you can buy her tulip flowers in the shop outside Flower Dome.
