Collaboration and Significance

This exhibition is a collaboration between Gardens by the Bay and the Royal Thai Embassy of Singapore. It marks the beginning of a year-long celebration of Singapore’s 60 years of diplomatic relations with various countries.

Gardens by the Bay Assistant CEO Ms May Yeo stated, “Singaporeans have a longstanding and warm relationship with Thailand, whose culture has always been a source of fascination. Gardens by the Bay serves as a floral window to the world, and in our first Thai-themed orchid display, we worked with the Royal Embassy of Thailand to weave in many familiar elements of Thai culture that have been intricately recreated by Thai artisans”.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience the beauty of Thai orchids and culture at Gardens by the Bay’s Cloud Forest.
