We were there on time.. but looks like there were some manpower issues and so.. nobody opened the gates when it is 830am. We waited and waited for 30 mins before dyeo did a leopard crawl under the gates to find help !
This is how the gate looked like
In the meantime.. we entertained ourselves first with this fellow which dropped from no where..
This little hut is entrance to the place.
You need to pay an entrance fee though.
- Adults $3.50
- Kids under 12 $1.00
- Photographers $1.50 (don't ask me how they define)
It is an interesting place.. It is made up of a few sections such as orchid garden, private property, orchid nursery, restaurant. You can also hold your wedding there too.
Adding a couple of photos.
Haven't got enough time to complete the walk.. hopefully will be back soon..
Another piece of heritage that is going to disappear. GO AND VISIT this place before it gets teared down.

The workers told me the Mandai Orchid Garden might be close soon. I decided to keep the garden alive by creating a virtual tour online. I hope to share it with you here: http://bit.ly/OrchidGardenMandai
Thanks for sharing Mr F. I've heard about the closing down news too.. didn't expect it to be so soon during Jan'11. Is it confirmed?
