[HD video below] The original two-floor Butterfly Garden in Changi Airport’s Terminal 3 was launched in August 2008, and is today one of the most well-received and popular features among travellers at Changi Airport.

 The first such garden to be found in an airport in the world, the 330 sqm garden is designed as a tropical nature retreat and is home to more than 1,000 free roaming butterflies.

The Butterfly Garden features a profusion of flowering plants, lush greenery and a 6-metre grotto-waterfall. Travellers can enjoy the sight of different tropical butterflies species during the different seasons of the year, while educational corners within the garden have been designed give those interested a deeper understanding of butterflies.

 The garden is also home to a collection of 200 carnivorous or insectivorous plants from about 30 species of Nepenthes - tropical pitcher plants from Southeast Asia, especially Singapore. These plants have adapted to growing in nutrient-poor soils by evolving ways of trapping and ‘feeding' on insects and small animals to obtain nutrients.
