A UNESCO Journey – Nature’s Heritage
The only UNESCO heritage site in Singapore, the Singapore Botanic Gardens was set up to research planting methods. One of the directors of Mad Ripley championed the planting of Rubber trees, making Malaysia one of the largest rubber producers in the world.
The Botanic Gardens, although retaining its old charms, have many new additions including a learning garden, a rain forest and the famous National Orchid garden.
Come join us to discover the Botanic Gardens.
