Come face-to-face with a fierce animatronic T-rex, then make your way to safety by slipping through a fence, prowling among palm-like plants with thick trunks and spiky leaves. These include cycads such as the Cycas revoluta (Japanese Cycad) and Cycas rumphii (Queen Sago), plants that once grew across the land during the dinosaur age. Enjoy an exciting photo opportunity where you get to choose from different animated backgrounds, along with exclusive digital reels to preserve your special Jurassic World visit.

Favouring moist gullies and valleys in Eastern Australia, the feathery foliage of Dicksonia Antarctica (Tasmanian Tree Fern) (above, right) shelters an abundance of ferns and mini orchids. Despite their preference for humid places, mature ferns are wildfire tolerant.

Walk with dinosaurs at Gardens by the Bay's Jurassic World: The Experience

ST PHOTO: LIM YAOHUI Walk with dinosaurs at Gardens by the Bay's Jurassic World: The Experience SINGAPORE – Ahead of the July 3 premiere of the new sci-fi action movie Jurassic World Rebirth, a roaring good time awaits at Jurassic World: The Experience come May 29. Amid the lush foliage and cool-moist climate of Gardens by the Bay's (GBTB) Cloud Forest, visitors will be greeted by life-size animatronic and sculpted dinosaurs hoisted within the famed local attraction. This is the first time the immersive exhibition inspired by the blockbuster Jurassic Park film franchise (1993 to present) is showing in Singapore. Jurassic World: The Exhibition – which launched in Paris, France, in 2018 – has travelled to London and Colombia, and will make its way to Bangkok and Madrid. Get up close with two brachiosauruses as you enter the glass dome – with one of them standing 8.5m tall – as well as a Tyrannosaurus breaking through a shattered fence and prowling among palm-like trees known as cycads. A ferocious animatronic Tyrannosaurus emerges from a shattered fence.

Identify the 3D man-made replication of long-extinct plants dating back to the Jurassic period, and gain insights into the connections between ancient and modern ecosystems. At a media preview of Jurassic World: The Experience on May 26, GBTB's senior director of conservatory operations Heng Whoo Kiat said: 'It is quite a unique presentation, where it is not just about Jurassic World, but also telling a story of evolution. 'These plants provided food and shelter for the dinosaurs, and it gives you a chance to see something that you will not see anywhere else in the world.'

Produced by Neon, a global leader in immersive experiences, and presented in collaboration with Universal Live Entertainment, the family-friendly interactive adventure aims to enhance the experience for both cinephiles and dinosaur fans with the u se of light, music and pre-existing features within the dome. Mr Trent Wall, executive creative director of Neon , said: 'All these massive trees and lush vegetation allow us to show off the dinosaurs in a way that we can't do anywhere else because usually, to get this type of foliage, we have to be outside. Yet, Cloud Forest allows us to be indoors – so there's that controlled environment, but we still have that beautiful garden.' A pair of hungry Velociraptors fix their gaze on the Pteranodon nests. ST PHOTO: LIM YAOHUI When asked how the Singapore edition differs from those overseas , he said: 'We wanted to do something complementary to Cloud Forest because we didn't want to lose the essence and beauty that is Cloud Forest. 'So, we decided that we would take more of a celebratory adventure that celebrates the brand, rather than taking guests on a specific journey.' From 2022 to 2023, the venue was home to another movie-inspired installation, Avatar: The Experience, which was also produced by Neon.
