HortPark is a 9-hectare park and garden located in the southwestern part of Singapore. It opened in December 2007, but it was not until May 10, 2008, that Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, officially launched it. Situated in the Southern Ridges, HortPark is a park connector that allows visitors to travel around Kent Ridge Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, and Mount Faber Park. Traveling is made possible through elevated walkways and connecting bridges.
