Floral Fantasy is a Gardens By The Bay attraction located close to Bayfront MRT Station. It is a place where flowers meet artistry with various zones that showcase the creative aspects of floral art.
The attraction is not very large and it very often gets overlooked in favour of the more prominent Gardens by the Bay attractions such as the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest. This is understandable since you can probably walk through the attraction very quickly.
However, if you are the sort who does appreciate the floral art, the best way to experience Floral Fantasy would be instead to slow and soak in the beauty and efforts that have gone into the various displays.

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.
