Cycling in NTU

It is a cycling trip organized by LCSG. The trip started from the Old Nanyang University gate in Yunan Garden. It is now just a gate. Surprisingly there is a replica in front of the Chinese Heritage Center.
The next stop is at the Chinese Heritage Center. It is free admission.
The next stop is the hanging bridge. According to the leader, it was closed to traffic since the 911 incident.
Passing the bridge, we came to the Army Museum.
The trip has a number of u turns and hill climbs. You can see from the WikiLoc link below.

After the museum, we wanted to go to NTU canteen 2 but was stopped by security from proceeding. Well, there must be a good reason for him to stop us from going up there.

We settled at another canteen near Students Walk. After having a quick bite, we went to the Community Herb Garden. There were quite a number of herbs grown there.
Since I know nothing about herbs, took a few flower pictures instead.
The trip stops at Dragon Kiln Village (Thow Kwong Industry, part of Kranji Heritage Trail). A number of them took a free guided tour from the owner.
I noticed a big pot that has plants growing over the water.
There is a lily pond with a white statue in it.
Out of boredom while waiting, took a few flower pictures here.

We dismiss from here. Most of them go back via Pioneer MRT as they were on Foldies. A few of us had to cycle back home as we are on non foldies.
