A Visual Feast of Colors
The National Orchid Garden’s distinctive design idea, which displays an exquisite display of plants arranged into four separate colour zones, is one of its most outstanding aspects. Each zone is thoughtfully designed to highlight a certain colour scheme, giving guests a relaxing and eye-catching experience.
Start your adventure in the “spring” zone, where the environment is dominated by dazzling hues of gold, yellow, and cream, exuding a sense of freshness and vigour. Be enthralled by the striking reds and pinks that exude vigour and passion as you enter the “summer” zone. The “autumn” zone introduces a more sophisticated colour scheme with earthy tones that radiate comfort and peace. When you reach the “winter” zone, it welcomes you with clean whites and cool violet tones, creating a sense of calm.
