Abdulhayy Johnson (AJ)
★★★★★3 months agoEasy to access from the bus stop below then up the long staggered staircase. The whole area is beautiful and full of greenery and nature, including Mt Fabre park, Henderson Waves and Forest Walk. Peaceful enough to hear the birds, grasshoppers and even the cockerel in the morning. Plenty of signs around so not easy to get lost. Lush trees with cooler climate compared to urban concrete areas.
Cao Cao Akatsuki
★★★★★5 months agoHenderson Waves is a beautifully designed wooden pedestrian bridge crossing Henderson Road, known for its distinctive wave-like architectural structure. The bridge sits high above the road, offering nice views toward the sea and surrounding greenery. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing, making it a great spot for a morning or evening walk, light jogging, or simply enjoying the breeze and scenery. A pleasant stop along the Southern Ridges trail.
