I didn’t get to see the whole garden but it was beautiful! I loved the lakes and amazing flowers all around. They were celebrating Christmas by planting 100 trees and that was amazing ! There are these beautiful vintage lamps that I just couldn’t get over. It’s a Great Walk and the park is detailed with little graphics of information and signage is very helpful. One of the free attractions of the city! I recommend going for a picnic and chilling in the gazebos after taking short walks all around :)

What a park! Lots of plants are seen their. The attracted things are their that the plants are maintain properly and classified them based on their medicinal properties. Even the name of the specific site is different. It was really a very charming and recommended place. If you have time please go their and enjoy the beauty of nature.

If you like nature, this place is a must visit. It has an abundance of green spaces, and a ton of different types of landscapes. There are marshes, rolling green fields, forestry and even canals, and more. It's easy to get to from local train (MRT) stations. The closest two being Napier, and Botanic Garden stations, both of which are a fairly close. Less than ten minutes walk away. There are lots is buses too that stop nearby. They have clean restrooms, and the staff are helpful. There's also a really nice waterfall. And a lot of spaces that are great for picnic. There are sign posts spread frequently throughout the gardens, which makes getting around the (vast) place quite easy. Best of all... it's free! All in all, the Botanic Gardens is a fantastic place, easy to get to (thanks to the great transport links), and it gives you access to a ton of serene spaces and nature right in the heart of the city. Highly recommended 👍👍👍

Felt really good visiting this place. Very big garden to spend your weekend relaxing. Few people were even camping, a nice picking spot. There are many lakes within. Also don't miss visiting to orchid garden. This one as said is the largest orchid garden in the world. There is a nominal entry fee to orchid garden. Entry to botanical garden is free.

Gorgeous gardens, beautifully kept and maintained. Plenty of path ways throughout. Gardens have many different spaces with a wide variety of plant and tree types, a lot of wildlife scattered around too. Just a shame we couldn't spend longer there. Loved the orchid gardens the most, absolutely massive variety in orchids

Message from Singapore Tourism Board
The country’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site is a showcase of spectacular tropical flora. There are also many idyllic photo spots throughout the Gardens such as Swan Lake and The Bandstand gazebo. Set in lush greenery, the 158-year-old Singapore Botanic Gardens is the country’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only tropical botanic garden on the list. Its impressive, ornate main gate is a not-to-be-missed photo opportunity. It boasts four pillars and supporting swinging gates framing a cast-aluminium lattice of Bauhinia kockiana, the climber planted at the fencing just beside it. Inside, the gardens is a showcase of spectacular tropical flora, with various species of plants and flowers that makes beautiful photo backdrop.
