How to do it right

Come at golden hour: conservatories first (the Cloud Forest waterfall photographs best in daylight), then emerge for the Supertree Grove's free Garden Rhapsody show after dark — arguably Asia's best free spectacle. The OCBC Skyway between Supertrees adds a small fee for the aerial walk.

The two conservatories are genuinely different: the Flower Dome is a Mediterranean garden in permanent spring; the Cloud Forest is a mountain in a bottle. If you must choose one, choose the Cloud Forest.

Good to know

  • The light show is free — arrive 20 minutes early for a lawn spot.
  • Combined tickets online are cheaper than the gate.
