Gardens by the Bay has some new competition for coolest garden attraction with the recent opening of Singapore Botanic Gardens Tropical Montane Orchidetum (TMO).
The attraction, which serves as an expansion to the existing National Orchid Garden, has been in the works since 2017, and the end result certainly doesn t disappoint.
