Gardens by the Bay

A futuristic botanical park featuring towering tree-like structures, impressive greenhouse domes, and diverse plant exhibits.

Tips from the community

Gardens by the Bay, an urban park in Marina Bay, features the OCBC Skyway: an aerial, 420-foot walkway 72 feet above the ground that is suspended by “supertrees.” These massive structures of steel, concrete, and live plants soar as high as 16 stories. The supertrees’ massive canopies provide shade by day, significant purple light at night, and the perfect perch for sweeping city views.

A smattering of oooh and ahhh-worthy light displays across the park make it whimsically enticing, to say the least. And for something completely different, don’t forget to hop over to the city’s famous hawker stalls.
