Night Safari.

Nearly ran out of time to visit the famous Night Safari in Singapore, but last night did it!
Took but from Orchard Road and got there just after 8pm and was greeted by quite exciting fire show!




As dusk falls, the night is just starting for over 1,000 nocturnal animals. It is wonderful experience! you take a electric tram or more likely a train through barely lit forest areas where the animals are living in fairly open and natural spaces.
It does feel a bit of amusement park, sitting on a tram and watching animals and having a present telling you about the creatures, but still very nicely done. 


There is possibility to go for number of walks as well, which are more interesting, as you can stop whenever you feel like and enjoy the sight of animals in front of you.


I did both, did the tram ride first and then went for walks along the paths. Unfortunately didn't have the tripod with me, so didn't manage to take that many pictures. Oh well, except Slow Loris was enough slow for me and my camera... 


Slow Loris

Overall, great place to visit, and could have spent even few more hours wondering around, but at the same time, seeing these animals in their real natural habitat is even more exciting.
