The National Orchid Garden is located on the highest hill in the Singapore Botanic Gardens. Three hectares of carefully landscaped slopes provide a setting for over 1,000 species and 2,000 hybrids, with about 600 species and hybrids on display. Over three hectares, the National Orchid Garden (within the Singapore Botanic Gardens) is the country's first UNESCO World Heritage Site. With 1,000 dazzling species of orchids, and 2,000 hybrids, explore four stunning areas based on spectacular colour spectrums representing the four seasons in an artistic blend of selected plants. Don’t miss the new star attraction, Sembcorp Cool House, walking through a forest in the clouds, featuring rare orchids grown only at altitudes of 1,000m to 2,000m.
The distinctive feature of the National Orchid Garden not to be missed is its design concept which presents the display of plants in four separate colour zones over most of its areas:
This colour zoning is achieved by a careful blend of selected trees, shrubs, herbs and orchids (mostly hybrids) with matching foliage and floral colours. The National Orchid Garden was opened on 20 October 1995 by Mr Lee Kuan Yew.
Immerse yourself in an exquisite, three hectare orchid garden, creatively designed to fit the colour spectrum, featuring thousands of stunning species of orchids. Walk through a forest in the clouds at the new Sembcorp Cool House, starring extremely rare orchids that grow only at elevations between 1,000m to 2,000m. The National Orchid Garden sits at the top of the hill within the Singapore Botanical Gardens, and is a must-see experience.
