The plant life was beautiful, great for walking, makes you forget you are in a city! Not a lot of shade in some areas so do not go when it is sunny and hot. More

we were totally surprised by the size - huge parkland areas and different planted areas with good information leaflets. Free apart from the orchid garden. The MRT takes you right to one of the entrances. Needs a day to explore fully plus lots of water to keep hydrated. More

The humidity hit us with a vengeance as we walked through the gardens. We walked up beside an artificial stream to the 'Ginger Garden'. The ginger family of plants is a broad range including many plants we recognized but didn't realize were part of the family. We then paid the small entrance fee to enter the 'Orchid Garden'. We were... More
