Botanic Garden | Singapore | Full Tour | 4K
Situated at the heart of the city of Singapore, the site demonstrates the evolution of a British tropical colonial botanic garden that has become a modern world-class scientific institution used for both conservation and education. The cultural landscape includes a rich variety of historic features, plantings and buildings that demonstrate the development of the garden since its creation in 1859. It has been an important centre for science, research and plant conservation, notably in connection with the cultivation of rubber plantations, in Southeast Asia since 1875.

Come with me on this immersive tour of the Singapore botanic garden, filled with spoilers, beautiful visuals, education, and uplifting atmosphere! This garden is free for public to access and contains many interesting features to nourish our thirst for botanical knowledge and to please our eyes. I focused on 3 main attractions in this tour so as not to overwhelm you.
We start off nerdy with the ethnobotany section, to look at the different ways they curate the exhibitions.
Then we head off to my favorite part, the Evolution garden - a walk through time as we explore prehistoric plants and their historic relevance and evolution. We see tons of ferns and cycads in this picturesque and unforgettable walk.
On the way to the third attraction, we were greeted by charming open areas where public gather, rows of heliconia and palm!
Finally, we visit the large zingiberaceae (ginger family) collection of the garden to see their well kept costus, banana, calatheas, and other marantaceae family!
This botanic garden is the envy of all nations, and the pride and joy of Singapore! Please give it a visit when you find yourself in Singapore.

Situated at the heart of the city of Singapore, the site demonstrates the evolution of a British tropical colonial botanic garden that has become a modern world-class scientific institution used for both conservation and education. The cultural landscape includes a rich variety of historic features, plantings and buildings that demonstrate the development of the garden since its creation in 1859. It has been an important centre for science, research and plant conservation, notably in connection with the cultivation of rubber plantations, in Southeast Asia since 1875.
Integrity
The Singapore Botanic Gardens contains all the attributes necessary to express its Outstanding Universal Value and fully contains the original lay-out of the Botanic Gardens. A number of specific attributes including historic trees and plantings, garden design, and historic buildings/structures combine to illustrate the significant purposes of the Singapore Botanic Gardens over its history. The integrity of the property could be further strengthened by developing additional policies directed at the replacement and retention of significant plants.
Authenticity
The authenticity of the Singapore Botanic Gardens is demonstrated by the continued use as a botanic garden and as a place of scientific research. The authenticity of material remains in the property is illustrated by the well-researched historic trees and other plantings (including historic plant specimens), historic elements of the designed spatial lay-out, and the historic buildings/structures which are being used for their original purposes or adapted to new uses that are compatible with their values.
Protection and management requirements
Most of the Singapore Botanic Gardens is in a National Park, and the other designations include: Conservation Area, Tree Conservation Area and Nature Area (applied to the rainforest area). There are 44 heritage trees within the property, and a number of protected buildings/structures such as houses 1 to 5 of the former Raffles College, Raffles Hall, E.J.H. Corner House, Burkill Hall, Holttum Hall, Ridley Hall, House 6, Garage, Bandstand and Swan Lake Gazebo.
The Singapore Botanic Gardens is protected primarily through the Planning Act of Singapore, which regulates conservation and development and requires permits to be obtained for new development or works. The Singapore Concept Plan guides strategic planning over a 40-50 year period and land use planning in Singapore is carried out by URA, the national land use planning and conservation authority. Land use, zoning and development policies for Singapore are established by a statutory Master Plan (2014) prepared under the Planning Act. The Master Plan is regularly reviewed and there are provisions for specific development control plans that provide guidance on the height and location of new developments as well as conservation principles for conserved buildings and their setting.
Land within the buffer zone is designated as ‘Landed Housing Areas’ (including ‘Good Class Bungalow Areas’) with guidelines on the height and building form of residential developments. Under these guidelines, developments within the proposed buffer zone should generally maintain low-rise and low density, although this could be strengthened by ensuring that the ‘Landed Housing Zone’ is applied to the entire buffer zone.
A Management Plan has been prepared for Singapore Botanic Gardens with the primary aim of ensuring effective protection, conservation, presentation and transmission of the attributes of the site’s Outstanding Universal Value. The Plan provides the over-arching framework for management of the property.

Before visiting Singapore, we didn't know that the Singapore Botanic Garden was an UNESCO World Heritage site! It's one of only 3 gardens in the world to have such a designation. A number of themed gardens are contained inside - a rainforest walk, healing garden, foliage garden, orchid area, ginger, a fenced-in toxic garden, and more! We also visit Symphony Lake, where a Guiness World Record was set in 2009.
On Day 4, we take the bus to Kong Meng San Phor Kark See, also known as KMSPKS. It's the largest Buddhist temple in Singapore, and once we visited, we saw just how big that meant it was! The architecture was beautiful - incredibly different from architecture at home. Our visit took place on the same day as the annual QingMing festival, and that turned out to be a fantastic time to visit. *Tons* of people came to pay respect to their ancestors and loved ones. It was very special for us to share their day with them.
In case you like skipping around:
00:00 Singapore Botanic Gardens
01:10 Scents of Singapore Botanic Gardens
02:26 Themed Gardens
05:37 Symphony Lake
06:55 Healing Garden
08:44 KMSPKS
10:13 QingMing Festival
