What is Floral Fantasy at Gardens by the Bay
For those who are wondering what it is typically like at Gardens by the Bay’s Floral Fantasy, here is a look at the various zones.
Dance
The first section of Floral Fantasy at Gardens by the Bay features a landscape of flowers called Dance.
Flowers suspended upside down from the ceiling create a whimsical landscape which ends in a troupe of floral balls.
Float
Dance quickly gives way to the next section, Float, where a channel of water flows along the length of the garden landscape.
Waltz
Sheets of falling water mark the start of Waltz, the next thematic area at Floral Fantasy. Reminiscent of a rainforest, Waltz is also where a vivarium of poison dart frogs can be found.
Highly-toxic in the wild due to their diet, these brightly-coloured amphibians only grow up to 2 inches in size – which makes spotting them in the vivarium a fun challenge.
Drift
The short stroll through the indoor Floral Fantasy exhibition ends in the cavern-like Drift section, where orchid and ferns decorate the rocky walls.
Flight of the Dragonfly 4D Ride
Capping off the Floral Fantasy experience is a 4D ride, Flight of the Dragonfly. This motion ride brings viewers on a soaring trip across Gardens by the Bay. It simulates the flight of dragonfly and highlights the Garden’s many attractions.
Plants and Artistry Come Together at Floral Fantasy
Visitors can also look out for an Artist Corner at Floral Fantasy. This showcases the work of various artists from time to time.
