This is Singapore's largest commercial
orchid garden. It's worth a visit for the colourful displays
and the method and manner of cultivation. The 4-hectare Gardens
features a whole hillside covered with flowering orchids in
the open sunshine, including Singapore's national flower,
the Vanda Miss Joaquim. There is also a landscaped Water Garden
at the valley with many plants of botanical interest.
Located conveniently next to the Zoo and Night Safari, visitors

Gift Shop to take home. The "Orchid Gift Box Service"
will deliver orchids to any address in the world.
