If you wish to enter the gardens from the main gate (Tanglin Gate), on the corner of Cluny and Napier Road, you can also take bus Nos. SBS 7, or 123, or 174, or SMRT 77, or 106 from the bus-stop on Orchard Boulevard, next to Orchard MRT Station, or from Somerset Road, next to Somerset MRT Station, or take 105 from Scotts Road (Far East Plaza) and drop off next to the gate (it might even be a better idea than to use the MRT).
Make sure you visit the gardens’ main highlight – The National Orchid Garden, where you can see the world’s largest collection of tropical orchids, including some 2,000 hybrids…
Continue through the Palm Valley and the “Rainforest” to the Visitors’ Centre and Casa Verde café, where you can have your breakfast and onwards, to the Evolution Garden and the northern side of the gardens, where the Botanic Gardens MRT Station is located.
