Cappadocia: The Kingdom of Caves (Turkey)

Cappadocia is a historical region in Central Anatolia, largely in Nevsehir Province. The name was traditionally used in Christian sources throughout history and is still widely used as an international tourism concept to define a region of exceptional natural wonders. The area is a popular tourist destination, as it has many areas with unique geological, historic, and cultural features.

The region is located southwest of the major city Kayseri, which has airline and railroad (railway) service to Ankara and Istanbul. Hot-air ballooning and Trekking are very popular in Cappadocia.

Supertree Grove at Gardens by the Bay, Singapore

Gardens by the Bay, Singapore's premier urban outdoor recreation space right next to Mariana Bay Sands, unveiled a new attraction last month - a cutting-edge horticultural mega project featuring 18 towering solar-powered "supertrees" and climate-controlled biomes.

There is an elevated walkway between two of the larger Supertrees for visitors to enjoy a breathtaking aerial view of the Gardens. A food and beverage outlet is planned atop the 50-meter Supertree. At night, the Supertrees come alive with a light and music show called the OCBC Garden Rhapsody. The entire project is estimated to have cost more than $1 billion.
