I am prompted to write this review after reading ileaf's review of a couple of days ago who wrote "Nothing much . . . just flowers, lots of orchid". 'ileaf' is obviously not a gardener or an orchid lover! The Singapore National Orchid Garden is probably the best outdoor display of tropical orchids in the world. In 2010/11, I traveled... More

Maybe I just do not know how to appreciate orchids, but I do not understand the attraction of this. The word "Garden" is deceptive - it is actually a small place. But I guess if you like orchids, then this is worth checking out cos of its vast varities. More

Best to go early to avoid the heat. Such a peaceful place to visit in hustle of Singapore. A surprise around every corner, orchids galore from all differing climates, a photographers delight . Worth the small entrance fee (5sing dollars) to meander among the orchids. Cool house is great to cool you down and present orchids from cooler climes More

Its worth to pay the entrance fee if you love these tropical flowers-a sizeable garden within the Singapore Botanic Garden. There are even "picture spots" just for those perfect cheesy shots. You'll get to see so many kinds of orchids in many different shapes, sizes and colours. More

The garden set in the Botanical Gardens with extra admission charge is a gem. Its well laid out to surprise as you walk around the paths. The displays are some of the beat we have seen. The gardens are easily visited in a one hour visit. hard to believe this delight is hidden amongst the bustle of Singapore. More

May is probably not the best month for orchids to bloom but i still enjoyed the walk through this enchanted forest of orchids. i particularly enjoyed the coolhouse with the mini waterfall. never seen orchids in this setting before. of course, its also a welcome escape from the heat for abit.. ;) More
