Gardens by the Bay — Singapore's Green Marvel
In a city built on ambition, Gardens by the Bay stands as Singapore's most celebrated attraction. This 101-hectare garden on reclaimed Marina Bay land has won international acclaim and is visited by millions every year. Best of all — the outdoor Supertree Grove is completely free to visit.
The Three Signature Experiences
Supertree Grove — Free Outdoor Attraction
18 vertical gardens ranging from 25 to 50 metres high, covered in over 162,900 plants from 200+ species. Walking through the Grove is free. The OCBC Skyway aerial walkway at 22 metres costs SGD 14. Every evening at 7:45pm and 8:45pm the famous Garden Rhapsody light and sound show is completely free — one of Singapore's most magical experiences.
Cloud Forest — World's Largest Indoor Waterfall
Step inside and enter the cool misty world of tropical mountain forests. The centrepiece is a 35-metre indoor waterfall cascading down an artificial mountain covered in orchids, ferns and carnivorous plants. Temperature inside is a cool 23–25°C. Allow 90 minutes minimum.
Flower Dome — World's Largest Glass Greenhouse
Guinness World Records certified. A cool, dry Mediterranean environment housing plants from five continents with spectacular seasonal themed floral displays that change every two months.
