Places To Visit In Singapore | Hungrytourists
Singapore is one of the largest cities in the world with a blend of Asian and European cultures. Singapore, which is described as a microcosm of modern Asia, is a fusion of culture and history and culinary luxury. Officially known as the Republic of Singapore, Singapore is a city and country in Southeast Asia. Singapore, one of the most visited travel destinations in Asia, can be described as a mix of busy life and off-street heritage. Amazing shopping malls, elegant boutiques, department stores on Orchard Road, exotic elements from Chinatown and Little India and first-class nightlife stretching across endless Singapore. Singapore has countless destinations to see and visit in an area of 277 square miles. Singapore tour packages enable a worthwhile journey to enjoy your Singapore honeymoon tours.
Here’s your guide to the first 15 places to visit in Singapore:
Gardens By The Bay
An international design competition for first-class garden design began in 2006. The end result: spectacular “garden in the park” at Gardens by the Bay. Gardens by the Bay offers plants from all over the world, from cold climates to rainforests. It’s amazing what technology and gardening can do in combination. Expand Bay’s Superperts Gardens in the Bay South Garden. They are solar powered and visitors can actually walk among some 50 meter trees to see the park from a dizzying height.
Sentosa Island
Only 20 minutes from downtown Singapore is Sentosa Island, which offers a variety of activities for all types of tourists. When you take the elevator to Mt. Pulau from Mount Faber, you can enjoy some of the most amazing views that Singapore has to offer. If you are a fan of everything that is aquatic, consider the rays, sharks and dolphins at S.E. Aquarium. The island even offers a glimpse of Singapore’s history through interactive exhibits of actors, 3D projections, and virtual boat trips to take you through history.
Sands Skypark
An infinity pool, several sun loungers and several restaurants make up the Sands SkyPark Observation Deck, which is at the top of one of the most famous casinos in Singapore. To really have fun, always skip the crowded pool area and go to the flight bar and SkyPark lobby instead. (We were told that there are some of the best Cuban cigars.)
Mustafa Center
Do you think the mall should be closed? Think again about the Mustafa Center in the heart of small India Singapore open 24 hours a day (ideal for burning midnight fuel). As one of the largest shopping centers in the world, this center sells everything you can imagine. Get ready to fight the masses because everyone wants to see this miracle of capitalism like you.
Beng Hiang Restaurant
Dine at the Hokien Beng Hiang Restaurant, which has been serving hungry parties with great recognition since 1978. Specialties include specialty pasta, fish tongs soup and steamed pork belly. This place is a Singapore facility, so most breakfasts are served regularly and keep coming back – especially on special occasions such as birthdays or anniversaries. We therefore recommend that you order in advance to avoid waiting times.
Visit the Plecos along the Singapore River
This is a special and hidden delicacy for travelers: when you go to a restaurant or sail on the man-made Singapore river that runs through the city center, you can see the shoulder of the fish on the steps of the river as it decreases. That’s right, fish only hang partially under water. This is the perfect way to relax and enjoy the truly amazing way in which Singapore’s flora and fauna blends perfectly with its ultra-urban paths.
MacRitchie’s Nature Trail
Just five kilometers from downtown Singapore is the MacRitchie Reservoir, home to the famous MacRitchie Nature Trail, one of the best climbs in Singapore. Don’t hesitate to go the trail yourself or join one of the free walking tours that almost guarantee meeting with one or more monkey apes they call the jungle house. Ideal for nature lovers and athletes. You will be amazed at how wild Singapore is only minutes from downtown.
Merlion Park
Throughout Singapore you can see the Merlion city-state official mascot with a lion’s head and a fish’s body. Well, there is the original Merlion Park where you can see the Merlion incarnation as high as 28 feet from its mouth in Singapore’s Marina Bay. Not only can you take photos with the statue, but you can also admire the views of the bay (and see two night shows, laser and water shows twice) and climb local bombs to see Boat Quay and Clarke Quay located on Singapore River.
Chinatown in Singapore
You came to Singapore – to see China? Why not? Chinatown in Singapore is a beautiful combination of traditional Chinese shops and markets as well as modern shops and cafes. There is so much to eat, see and do in Chinatown that you can spend the day walking in narrow streets, going to tea and medical shops, eating grilled meat on the street chopper floor, and even visiting Buddhists. The temple says a prayer for good luck. It is rich in history but at the same time energetic and modern as the rest of Singapore.
Buddhist Tooth Relic Temple and Museum
In Singapore’s Chinatown are temples and relics of the Buddha’s teeth, and although it looks a bit like a tourist, it’s an impressive sight. This temple was built in 2007 in accordance with Tang Dynasty architecture and contains many features and exhibitions of Buddhist art and culture. On the fourth floor, in the hall of holy light, is the center of the temple: a relic of Buddha’s teeth, housed in a large stupa. Only monks are allowed into the relics, but if you only see it or visit one of the prayer wheels in the rooftop garden, you can approach nirvana.
Hawker Stands
Someone seems to be a synonym for Asian countries: endless love of street food. Everywhere you go, someone sells something delicious from a small cart. Instead of random street vendors, he neatly organizes Hawker Centers in small malls, where you can easily search for more than 100 grocery stores in no time. For authentic and inexpensive street food, we recommend Maxwell Road Hawker Center on the outskirts of Chinatown. There is no air conditioning, but as long as you can withstand the heat, you can enjoy delicious dishes as authentic as you will find them.
Orchard Road for shopping
For lovers of shopping among you (or those who love watching great people), Orchard Road is a must. Although not all are under one roof like Mustafa Center, Orchard Road offers shopping for every taste and budget. From its humble beginnings as a rural road with fruit and pepper gardens in the 1830s, Orchard Road has developed into a powerhouse for shopping, restaurants and entertainment that is unlikely to collapse. Today, more than 5,000 stores offer lifestyle experiences that are difficult to compete with.
Singapore Zoo
Located in the lush rainforest of Mandai, which extends to the upper celery reservoir, is an oasis for animal lovers – Singapore Zoo. More than 2,800 animals are called zoos. Guests can watch them calmly and play on high platforms, through underwater observation areas and even through glass observatories. There are tram guides, interactive exhibits where you can meet creatures in person, and shows that train and entertain at the same time. The zoo has been around since 1973, but it does a good job and still feels fresh and pleasant. Singapore Zoo is also home to the world’s first night safari park, where visitors can explore the rainforest at night, watch tribal dances, and more.
Geylang, red light district
Do you want to return from Singapore with a great story? Swinging from Geylang, Singapore’s famous red light district. Browels Point Geylang Road and Sims Avenue are close to the central business district of Singapore. Houses that are active in the erotic industry are easily recognized by their bright red numbers. You might not want to participate in what they sell here, but it’s a good idea to find a good story to tell at home.
Singapore Flyer
Besides Skypark, there are other places in Singapore where you can have a truly unique city view. This is the Singapore Leaflet 540 meters, the largest Ferris wheel in Asia that sees everything from a bird’s eye view. One round takes 30 minutes. For an additional fee, the driver can drink champagne or even dinner while turning. Regardless of whether you want to drive during the day or after dark, the view is not there.
Conclusion
There are many places to visit in Singapore, whether you are traveling as a family, a couple or alone. This island city is full of wonders – it is beautifully planned and has one of the best transportation systems in the world. So you can go anywhere, see everything and not feel like you communicate often, even if you have traveled far. This urban forest continues to focus on how to make it green, so you will be surprised at the amount of flora and fauna here.
