Seeing Singapore

Supertree and me
 

Singapore wasn’t like anywhere else we went in Asia. Wealth pours from this city with its Skyscrapers, mega malls and underground which runs like clockwork.

One of my favourite attractions of our whole trip was the Gardens by the Bay in Singapore. The Supertree grove is a spectacular sight. These trees that stand 22 meters high are beautiful and unique during the day, but at night when they are lit up it is a whole new sight. The Garden Rhapsody show is a light and music show run daily at 7.45pm and 8.45pm and are very busy so make sure to leave enough time to get a good spot. Furthermore, you can even walk amongst the top branches if you buy a ticket for the sky walkway.  (Tip. We bought a ticket during the day but came back at night and did the walkway to avoid the ticket queue later on.)  

Now if you love to shop I highly recommend heading over to Bugis Street Market, let’s say we fell down the rabbit hole when we visited this market. The market is crammed in between little India and Marina Bay and is a short walk from Rochor MRT station. The market is composed of hundreds of little stalls and offers a range of products and services alongside clothes such as eateries, electronics and beauty services.

Lastly, we visited Singapore Zoo which is slightly out of the way but easy and cheap to get to if you get the Singapore Tourist Pass. This allows you unlimited access on the Bus, MRT and LRT for $20 for 3 days with $10 deposit which you get back when you return the card. Be prepared to walk in the zoo because it is massive and offers a large variety of animals to see and interact with which is exciting for young kids.
