It seems to be a Miltonia specie. Very pretty

Aleyna:
I think Miltonia species have larger flower? There's many Miltonia, Oncidium, Cymbium, Phalaenopsis, Masdevallia, Dendrobium, Vanilla, Lepanthes, Epidendrum, Maxillaria, Bulbophyllum, Paphiopedilum species and many more in the Botanical Building.

There's so many new hybrids available, it's not funny.
