The most beautiful garden in the world

With over 12,000 “beautiful” mentions on Tripadvisor, Gardens by the Bay in Singapore is the most aesthetically pleasing public park in the world.

Asia’s premier horticultural destination spans 101 hectares next to the Marina Reservoir in central Singapore. Stand-out features include the world’s largest greenhouse and ‘supertrees’ towering over 50-meters tall.

50million people have visited the garden since its gates opened in 2005. And many of them left glowing reviews on Tripadvisor. “Epic. Beautiful. Stunning. Memorable,” wrote one user. “A must-see for any nature lover.”

The most beautiful gardens in the USA

Not many people go to Las Vegas for the gardens. But it’s where they’ll find the USA’s most beautiful green space – The Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Garden.

It’s a 14,000-square-foot atrium brimming with color, exotic fauna, and stunning water features. The garden comprises four main sections, each of which mirrors a different season.

“The attention to detail is stunning,” posted one happy visitor. “It’s like walking through a fairytale. The fresh flowers, the artwork, the design, the giant bird and balloon sculptures – everything is so beautiful!”

The Portland Japanese Garden in Portland, Oregon, is another one of North America’s best-loved parks. Even the former Ambassador of Japan to the United States agrees. After visiting the park back in the late 1980s, His Excellency Nobuo Matsunaga called it “the most beautiful and authentic Japanese garden outside of Japan.”

Why gardens matter

Andrew Downing dedicated his life to gardens. The landscape designer and horticulturist is widely regarded as the founder of American landscape architecture.

When asked about the joys of a public garden, he said, “They are the most perfect union of the useful and the beautiful that the earth knows. Trees full of soft foliage; blossoms fresh with spring bounty; and, finally, fruit, rich, bloom-dusted, melting, and luscious. There is nothing like a well-designed public garden for enriching our health and spirits!

Here’s the full breakdown of the world’s most beautiful gardens.
