Really beautiful location. I cannot believe this whole park is free. Such a gem. We loved spending a few hours here. Lots of monitor lizards, a few swans, and many turtles. There is just about every plant imaginable, and the orchids and flowers are beyond amazing.

A must go if you:
1. Are a tourist
2. Love nature
3. Like to have meals in a garden
4. Like photographing flowers and greens
5. Looking for a huge space for your kids

If you truly want to explore the entire garden in detail, you may need at least half a day.

Best value and more enjoyable than Marina Bay Gardens for me. Grateful for all the work put in by the staff and management to create this wonderful and varied valuable space in Singapore. Go here if no time for the tourist stuff its much better.

Thank you.

A must do every time we visit Singapore, a restful haven in a busy city. Always spotless with helpful staff. The Orchid Garden is always worth a visit, and the recent extensions are excellent. Try it out at different times of the day, very pleasant sunset stroll location

The Singapore Botanic Gardens is a true horticultural gem. With its lush greenery, meticulously maintained landscapes, and a remarkable collection of flora, it's a tranquil escape from the city's hustle and bustle. The National Orchid Garden within is a particular highlight, showcasing an extraordinary array of orchid species. It's not just a garden but a testament to Singapore's commitment to preserving its natural beauty. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, a casual visitor, or a photographer seeking inspiration, the Botanic Gardens offers an enchanting experience that's both educational and relaxing. A must-visit for anyone in Singapore.

Very nice walking experience on a cloudy and cooler Saturday. Been more than 20 years since my last visit here.
However the signage needs some improvement, as my friends and I were walking round and round following the road signs. In the end, we had to ask around for the way to get to the place we wanted to visit.

Really a great urban jungle in the midst of the city.. had an amazing time going through the park.. feeling the fresh air.. had a long, tough walk through the vast park. No entry fee. The National orchid garden had a separate fee.

Really nice garden to visit. They have wild chickens and lizards running around. We stumbled across a school of turtles and it was a magical experience. Very interactive and fun to see all the animals roaming free. They even have a little museum discussing the history of the gardens and they have a delicious food shop near by as well. We only bought a few juices from there. Highly recommend this activity. Just hydrate and keep cool. Singapore is very hot outside.

Magnificent gardens! We had a great walk through the gardens and also through the orchid section. There is good bird life here. It is very warm during the middle of the day, and most people looked like they were suffering a bit. So bring a hat, and some suncream. At the end of the National orchid gallery, there is an air-conditioned area and that was a welcome relief after walking around for awhile.

Fabulous flowers and gardens. Walking through you can see so many examples of the local flora and enjoy them in their natural setting. I loved all the lakes, and all the statues and the beautiful plants and foliage.. And is usually orchid garden was it’s stunning self. Just a sight for sore eyes.
Tan TM
Such a beautiful place. Really enjoyed my walk in the different gardens. Although it gets quite hot after 11am, there’s lots of tree shade which helps. Bring water and a cap. There are a few water coolers but they are difficult to find.
