Singapore Orchids

The National Orchid Garden is in the Western section of the Botanic Gardens, requiring a small entrance fee (5 SGD at the time of this writing). It is worth the price of admission and then some.

The NOG is quite large, probably 7-8 acres, with beautiful landscaping. I believe there are over 2,000 hybrids and hundreds of species contained here. The highlight for me was the "VIP Orchid Garden" which contained dozens of hybrids named after visiting heads of state such as Margaret Thatcher and Benazir Bhutto. There is also a collection of Bromelaids (Asian flower.... don't worry I didn't know what they were either) that are spectacular. The landscaping and sculptures found here are a step above the Botanic Gardens in my opinion.

Highly recommended.
