Bukit Timah Nature Reserve

We went to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve with our children, they spent too much time at home playing Wii and DS so it's good to go out and see the nature. We arrived after 2 o'clock, not so many people there. Normally people comes here in morning.

Settle: EMP/SFM & International Fountain

The EMP | SFM building, set in Seattle Center – just steps from the Space Needle, Pacific Science Center and the park’s summer entertainment and events – was designed by Frank O. Gehry. It is a Seattle landmark – of those you-can’t-miss-it places.
In early days, it was described as “swoopy.” The building design was inspired by a shattered Fender Stratocaster guitar, and is colorful, curving and clad in a variety of materials. At sunset, it glows.

Seattle: Seattle Aquarium

The minute you enter, there it is. A giant aquarium. It is like a window into Elliott Bay. A natural gathering spot, kids plunk down for frequent interpretive shows while adults grab a place on the bench.
Modeled after Neah Bay’s rock blades, the aquarium is filled with salmon, colorful rockfish, vibrant sea anemones and other native Washington marine life. 

The Spirit of Seattle, an Argosy tour boat, offers superb viewing spots on open-air and enclosed decks. Moored at Pier 55 – just a short walk from the Seattle Aquarium.
