The trip in total took about 40 minutes to get to the gardens and it's the one part of the MRT that is above ground so I was able to check out the scenery.
The MRT plops you out right at the entrance to the Chinese Gardens so it was impossible to miss. The Chinese Gardens had tons of buildings and sculptures, which were quite interesting. I didn't realize that there is an upcoming lantern festival that they were starting to decorate for.
