In brief

Gardens by the Bay (Singapore) in brief

1

A park in two parts

The outdoor gardens and the Supertree Grove are free. The two climate-controlled domes are paid: that's where you'll see the most impressive sights.
2

Garden Rhapsody, free every evening

The Supertrees sound and light show runs twice a night, usually at 7:45pm and 8:45pm. Settle on the lawn.
3

Aim for the cool morning or late afternoon

The outdoor gardens bake under the midday sun. The domes stay pleasant thanks to air conditioning.
4

Combine the two domes

The Flower Dome plus Cloud Forest combo ticket is far cheaper than buying them separately. Count about 53 S$.
5

Bring good shoes

The park is vast. Between the OCBC Skyway, the domes and the Grove, you'll walk several kilometers.
