Time Out says

You won’t need to book a flight to the Philippines to see some of the country’s most stunning orchids – known for being among the most beautiful in the world. Just head down to Gardens by the Bay’s Cloud Forest from now until January 2025 to enjoy some of the country’s most exquisite orchids on display. With the help of 20 Filipinos, from domestic workers to students from the NUS Filipino Cultural Club working alongside resident horticulturists, Gardens by the Bahay Kubo: A Fiesta of Orchids will showcase more than 40 Philippine orchid varieties, including iconic species from the Vanda, Dendrobium, and Phalaenopsis genera. Other must-see orchids include the Phalaenopsis schilleriana, one of the most widely sought-after varieties and an ancestor of the well-known pink moth orchid hybrids today. 

The display’s namesake, the Bahay Kubo, takes centre stage amidst the orchids. It's a traditional stilted house synonymous with Filipino culture and represents the strength of a community. You’ll see it decked out in flora, making for the perfect photo-op. Also, be sure to visit soon, as there's a limited time for the blooming of the Waling-waling, a coveted orchid species affectionately known as the Queen of Philippine Flowers and revered by the indigenous Bagobo people. Find out more here.
