Gardens by the Bay has launched Lilytopia, its first Egyptian-themed floral display, running in the Flower Dome until September 27, 2026. Presented in collaboration with the Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt in Singapore, the event marks 60 years of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
The display features more than 7,000 lilies across 46 species and varieties, including garden lilies, the Egyptian blue waterlily, and giant Victoria waterlilies grown in-house by the horticultural team.
At the centre of the display is a recreated formal ancient Egyptian garden featuring a central pond. The layout includes plant varieties such as papyrus, ginger, and pomegranate, along with new lily cultivars making their debut, including Lilium Tiny Massive, Lilium Tropical Dragon, and Lilium White Triumph.
Architectural structures include a 4.5-metre-tall façade modelled after the Great Temple of Abu Simbel, painted hieroglyphs inspired by the Temple of Hathor at Dendera, deity statues, a solar barque, and traditional irrigation tools such as the shaduf and Archimedes screw.
Visitors to the Flower Dome can collect a complimentary air plant until August 25, subject to availability. Admission charges apply, and the display is open daily from 09.00 to 21.00.
