Latest Singapore attraction ready to flower
Singapore’s latest attraction, Gardens by the Bay – five years in the making – will launch on June 29.
Opening events will include live concerts, a green fair to raise awareness of the environment, self-discovery trails and outdoor movies under the stars.
Signature feature The Flower Dome will include a choreographed light and sound show at the Supertree Grove, and a series of interpretive media and narratives that bring to life the story of plants.
"Gardens by the Bay will provide a unique green space and horticulture-themed leisure destination in Marina Bay," said CEO Dr. Kiat W. Tan.
Bay South Garden will be open to the public from 5.00am to 2.00am daily.
Opening hours for the cooled conservatories and the aerial walkway in the Supertree Grove are from 9.00am to 9.00pm daily.
Entry to Bay South Garden will be free, with the exception of the cooled conservatories which showcase plants of high conservation value from endangered habitats in the world.
