Ah Seng Blog (Part 2): 2023 Singapore Short Trip (3 Days 2 Nights) - Gardens By The Bay 2 (Supertree Observatory)

Gardens By The Bay

The Supertrees, which range in height from 25 to 50 meters, are not only vertical gardens. They are technological marvels that serve important environmental functions: they collect falling rain to use for watering the plants they house, they measure the temperature, absorb heat and, if necessary, radiate it.

SUPERTREE GROVE

The grove consists of 18 Supertrees which are made from reinforced concrete and wrapped in a steel frame. While the trees are not wood, they do have planting panels which are installed along the trunk of the tree. This creates a living skin of plants that cover the entire tree trunk.

Supertrees facts:
Designed by Grant Associates the Supertrees are vertical gardens ranging from 25 to 50 metres in height (equivalent to 9 to 16 storeys) housing tropical flowering climbers, epiphytes and ferns. There are Supertrees within Bay South at Gardens by the Bay.

Although the grounds in the gardens are free to enter, you must pay to walk along the “Skyway” high amongst the Supertrees. Enter the park from the Dragonfly Bridge, which is the perfect spot to get some photographs of the large Supertrees, the Singapore Flyer and Marina Bay Sands.

Get your cameras ready! Located at the tallest Supertree’s canopy, the Supertree Observatory offers unparalleled views of Gardens by the Bay’s lush surrounds and the Marina Bay area. Enjoy refreshments, an immersive digital learning experience, endless photo opportunities, and an unforgettable time at the Gardens’ highest point!
