The Cloud Forest conservatory features a 35-meter tall man-made mountain with an indoor waterfall.
The Supertrees are equipped with photovoltaic cells to harvest solar energy for lighting.
The Flower Dome utilizes a cooling system that creates a Mediterranean climate, significantly cooler than the outdoor tropical heat.
The park's development was part of Singapore's 'City in a Garden' vision to improve quality of life by increasing greenery.
The Cloud Forest structure contains a 'Lost World' canopy walk located at the top of the mountain.
Horticultural waste from the site is fed into an onsite bio-mass boiler to generate electricity for the greenhouses.
The entire site is built on land reclaimed from the sea, expanding Singapore's total land area.
The Dragonfly and Kingfisher Lakes act as natural water filtration systems for the park’s irrigation.
Gardens by the Bay is a 101-hectare nature park built on reclaimed land in Singapore's Marina Bay district. It features the Cloud Forest and Flower Dome, two of the world's largest climate-controlled glass conservatories. The site is anchored by 18 Supertrees, which are vertical gardens ranging from 25 to 50 meters in height. These steel structures serve as environmental engines, performing functions like solar harvesting and air venting for the conservatories. The park is integrated into the city’s sustainable infrastructure, utilizing a combined heat and power plant to process horticultural waste. Diverse garden zones, such as the Heritage Gardens, explore the history and culture of Singapore's ethnic groups through plant species. The OCBC Skyway offers a 128-meter elevated walkway between the Supertrees for aerial views of the district. The park operates as a major hub for botanical research and public education.
The elevated OCBC Skyway provides a panoramic view of the Supertree Grove and the surrounding city skyline.
Bring a light sweater or jacket, as the interior of the conservatories is maintained at significantly lower temperatures than the outside.
Download the park's official mobile application to check for real-time crowd levels and show timings.
Visit the outdoor Supertree Grove area for the evening light show, which is free of charge.
Do not attempt to see the entire 101-hectare site on foot without using the internal shuttle service to save energy.
The conservatories typically undergo periodic maintenance closures on specific dates each month; check the official website calendar before visiting.
Walking on flower beds is strictly prohibited; casual outdoor attire and comfortable walking shoes are recommended.
