The National Orchid Garden in Singapore, nestled within the UNESCO World Heritage site of the Singapore Botanic Gardens, is a must-visit destination. Here, you'll encounter a breathtaking array of over 1,000 species and 2,000 hybrids of orchids, each captivating with its vibrant colors and enchanting fragrances. Among these floral treasures, you'll find the iconic Vanda Miss Joaquim, Singapore's national flower and a unique symbol of the nation's rich botanical heritage. This remarkable orchid, the only one of its kind in the world, was meticulously crafted in the 1890s through the ingenious crossbreeding of two distinct flower species.
This is a beautiful garden to go to! I recommend seeing it and if you get too hot exploring there is an icy ‘cool room’ filled with orchids as well. Bathrooms are so well maintained, there is also a water fountain to refill your water bottle with icy cold water and service from staff is exceptional. Definitely a must visit.
Very fast transaction online. Saved some money by buying through Pelago than on-site. The garden is much bigger than I thought but absolutely beautiful all around. Had a very relaxing time away from the crowds.
Very beautiful spot to visit! They rotate some of the orchids so there's always blooms everywhere! Great for plant enthusiasts or as a Singapore photo spot! Plan ahead and bring mosquito repellent before going though !
The Orchid Gardens were absolutely amazing well worth an afternoon or entire day if you have the time.
The Botanical Gardens are a treat for Singaporeans and travellers alike. The Orchid Gardens are the jewel in the crown and to be honest a much appreciated respite from the humidity (temperature controlled). Be sure to include this in your itinery.
An amazing place to visit. We went while it was raining slightly, and believe me, it was the perfect weather to visit. We Loved it immensely.
